Hi Grimi

Welcome to the Cali Club. I have found everyone so friendly here and come back quickly on any queries. Do share a photo of your Cali, and does it have a name yet - if not why not?

Very nice thank you - you have a very large garage .... oh that's the showroom

 

[davidgmo]

Regards naming.... we took two weeks to name our daughter some years ago and eventually settled on ELISA which we thought was unique only to discover that it is Spanish for Elisabeth (like our Queen)

How about ELISA - shortens to ELI or ELLIE now I know its a Spanish name?

Hola! De lunes a viernes puedes moverte por toda Catalunya mientras estés dentro del furgo desde las 22:00 hasta las 6:00. Los findes, puedes escoger un municipio del Pirineo y quedarte desde el jueves noche hasta el lunes a las 6:00. Yo he pasado este finde en Esterri de Aneu, hay un parquing del ayuntamiento adecuado a furgos y Autocaravanas. También hay un camping en las afueras del pueblo. En tres días hemos hecho el Estany de Aïroto, Les Tres Estanys, y el Pic de Pinetó. Espectacular!

Uala clarinet moltes gracies pel consell me la guardo que sembla que vindra molt mal temps pel cap de setmana!! Seguiré els consells per evitar sancions de la policia!!

 

[Ramon Grimalt]

Today is the day!!!! I will go and pick it up !! I am so excited!! It is a real pity that we will not be able to move freely due to the blockdown in our country... but we shall try to do something and experience the feeling of freedom!

Bravo! What a great way to inaugurate your new Cali, glad the suggestion was useful. Les Tres Estanys look a little colder then when we were there last week!
