As I've told before I'm house sitting for friends. This year they booked a campsite in Belgium instead of Spain. It's only a two and a half hour drive with the caravan. If there is going to be a lockdown they could easily get home.
Two days ago I got a message that they didn't like the campsite in Belgium and that today, Saturday, they were going to another campsite in France. I looked up the new campsite on Google Maps and it's a 800km drive. At least nine hours not taking into account any traffic problems. Which are bound to happen since it's a Black Saturday in France.
They mentioned something about face masks. I'm not if it meant they didn't like the campsite in Belgium because they had to wear them all the time or that it's just an observation. But in France the face mask rules are stricter than in Belgium, if they didn't like in in Belgium, they won't like it in France.
I'm somewhat annoyed by this development. It means that they'll return later on the 17th. But I also think it's a bit irresponsible to go away that far in a country where the corona cases are rising sharply at the moment.
