Brighton Breeze October 2014 - blog by Amy

We jumped into our T25 after work and headed to Hook Road Arena, Epsom, where we found a field of fellow campervanners - it was very exciting!  However, we were certainly the least prepared... we hadn't had enough time to put the units/cooking equipment back in, and we didn't have any interior lighting.  So while everyone else sat in their lovely vans with their lights on, cooking dinner... we enjoyed a takeaway pizza, a bottle of wine (which we drunk from the bottle as we also forgot to pack glasses) whilst constantly winding up our eco-friendly (but not very useful) torch!  It was great fun though.

It was well worth the drive to Epsom, what a view to wake up to...

We found a friend too!

After breakfast, we all lined up and prepared to drive to Madeira Drive, Brighton.

I think we can tell who rules the roost in this camper...

The convoy was quite a spectacle as you can imagine - people were stopping to take photos of all the vans as they passed... all of the vans apart from ours :-(  Poor Amelie!  We love her though!

It wasn't long before we started seeing older vans by the side of the road.  In fact, there was at least one in the morning that wouldn't start, so at least we made it all the way there!

The journey to Brighton went well and there were hundreds of campervans on Madeira Drive when we got there.

It was good to get some ideas from the other vans there.  I like these eyelids!

To keep in with the 'Breeze' theme, we had lunch at Breeze Brasserie which is in Trafalgar Street.  The food was amazing and there was a great atmosphere, I'd thoroughly recommend it!

We had a brilliant weekend and I managed to get a hippy headband at last...
