Our First Opus Experience

Our first time making a trip with the Opus that we purchased at the NEC!

Now that it’s Spring time, we decided to make our first trip in our Opus camper that was purchased at the NEC.

A few things went wrong - from not being able to connect the electrics to the car when hitching up, to not having enough room for John in the car, when the car was loaded up! We managed to resolve the issues, with a bit of help, and had an enjoyable first trip.

We didn’t put the awning up this time as we were getting used to putting the Opus up, but the plan is to do a tour of both the Opus and the awning, once we have both up together. This will probably be later in the year, when we’re away for longer than a few days.

It was an enjoyable trip and we’re looking forward to doing the next one.
