Post Brexit and Covid restrictions trip,

November 2021 - February 2022  •  100 days  •  5 097.1 km (see details)

Covid19, has been a big Global issue these last two years, certainly in respects to border crossings and European vehicle travel. Especially as the UK, as of Brexit January 2021, is now considered a 'Third Country' outside of the Euroblock. The UK has also consistently been in the top three numerically, GLOBAL - NEW CASES of Covid19, regardless of the size of it's population. See the demographics. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ On the 31st of October, my Campervan friend called me, informing me that the NHS Covid19 vaccination app was now being accepted by most of the Euroblock countries, and the previous requirement of a PCR negative test result within 48 hours of attempting to cross a Euroblock border had as of the 31st been waived, that is, if you could show, proof of at least two previous Covid vaccinations. I have actually had three. I'd been starting to get a little stir crazy in the last few weeks of October just wanting to get out there on an adventure in my campervan. I'd prior been spending time in my old home town of New Brighton, Wallasey, UK, that I had been away from, for almost 30 years. I liked what was going on in New Brighton, with it's rejuvenation, and helped out where I though I could, but didn't want to get too tied into anything that might tie me down. As of the beginning of November, all lights seemed to be green in regards to travel Europe and it was time to get out of dodge. :-) So here I am again rolling it for real. :-)
