Dear Mariska, we bought a mattress in Zaventem, BE, and are currently sleeping safe and sound in our new ‘bedroom’ (in the car). More comfortable than expected, although sleeping on slopes is a bit challenging;).

Dear Flop, no photos yet of our new decorated ‘bedroom’, but once we get the hang of uploading photos simply and quickly to our blog, you’ll be the first one to get the grand tour!
Also for Flop: in the end we only stayed one night in Versailles and moved on from Paris; we’ll leave a decent visit to this city up to a special city break once settled again.

In the mean time, we found our telescopic ladder at a Bricorama just outside Paris (reasonable price too!). Makes it far easier to get to the roof rack, put stuff on it and take it off again, although we haven’t had the chance to do that as of yet due to rain and not enough time. As it will be our first time to take everything off since we put it up last Sunday, we might need a few hours of sunshine to ensure we repack and put all back on the roof before the next shower of rain appears.

Any further questions? Once a week (or month depending on the number of Qs coming in), we’ll hold a Q&A session;).

Lots of love,

S&Sx
