That's right Princess Pepper Cloud, you call caravans "trailers". We also have trailers but they don't have 'lids' and are generally used for transporting bikes, work loads and rubbish to tips. Dogs like to ride in them :)

I'd love to have that green trailer. I would go camping every weekend, in style.

Those caravans are so tiny Ces ... I figured I would be too long to even lie down straight to sleep. Priscilla's Coaches on the otherhand ... :)

I love caravans - they remind me of playing house when I was younger! lol

Priscilla Queen of the Desert - what a film! ;)

HAHHAAA, those caravans are a lot like kiddie cubby houses Miladysa! Most excellent film! We saw it at the movies in Alice Springs - very interesting reaction from the audience. Only Bearman, myself and one other Lady laughed!

Campervans are more the fashion here now KJ :) I LOVE that movie too! The songs are EXCELLENT!!!

It's not too bad being 'vintage' Simon ;)

HI Vintage caravan owners! If you have arrived here from Vintage Caravan's website, please say Gidday :) My blog is feeling a bit used here ... PS: Ces is from Texas, so would have to travel a fair way to spend her weekends in the 'green trailer' HAHHAHAA
