Our day was going to go one of two ways. At the end of the night last night we decided that if we could stay here in the campground we would for today. If we could not we were going to pick a place and hope we could get in, but be prepared to wild camp somewhere.

I was waiting at the office when they opened at 8am. While I was waiting I began to mentally decide where we would go today as taped to the door was a notice that they were completely booked today and would not be accepting any unreserved arrivals.

When the door opened I went in and said I know you are full, but is there any chance we can stay today? The lady said we are full but asked my name. She typed in her computer and said M8 (our spot in the campground), after a couple more key strokes she said today, but not tomorrow.

Our plans for the day then became doing laundry, and relaxing. Early in the afternoon we walked to the nearby mall to look for a stool to replace the one I had run over Ceske Krumlov. We hadn’t eaten lunch and instead of a stool we ended up with a bag full of food all of which looked delicious at the grocery. As they always say, don’t shop for food when you are hungry.

The rest of the day was spent lounging around François and watching the campground fill up. The plans for tomorrow are an early departure and a 4 house drive to Aachen Germany near the Dutch border.
