 |
|
So the VW camper is without question a great little motor home. This is why we all own one. I have enjoyed visiting national parks in them for many years. I thought I would start a thread for posting pics of just this topic to inspire people & myself to try & get out there more. Please post pics of your split Bus in any National park, not just in the US.
Carefull as visiting your National Park may cause this kind of excitement!
Buffet breakfast at the Ahwanee hotel is a must when visiting Yosemite.

Pic of my deluxe in the Yosemite Valley at a split bus campout many years ago. Crappy picture was pre-digital so it's a scanned copy but a cool pic anyhow.
Looks like you guys had an awesome drive to or from from Madera yesterday!! I can't wait to make that trip again. |

Great idea, Cory. Since I'm doing my best not to work on a project proposal right now I may as well post up some pics of my Riv in some National Parks. Gotta love those year long passes!

January visit to The Grand Canyon National Park 2010. Turns out that is not the best time to visit in a motorhome/Bus.  We still had fun for the 20 hours we were there.
