may 29-07.jpgBecause our rig is going into the paint shop for three days, through Precision Paint we had made arrangements to stay at a local Bed & Breakfast for tonight and tomorrow night. They referred us to the Scottish Bed & Breakfast just outside of Bremen and because we had to have the coach at the shop for 7:00 this morning, we decided to see if we could check in last night. By doing so we could leave our Moho at the paint shop last night and not get up at the crack dawn this morning. Luckily for us the Scottish B & B was able to accommodate us!

Brenda and Homer Miller are great hosts and their B & B is super comfortable; best of all they allow pets and they have four Scottish terriers. Once upon a time, when we lived in a stick & brick house, we too had Scottie dogs so this was a real treat for us. Our room is huge and beautiful, Sam is slowly adapting to all the extra space and it was heaven to sleep in and have someone else make our breakfast for us this morning! Among the amenities here is an indoor pool, exercise equipment, a pool table, our own private bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub and separate shower, in room satellite TV and free high speed Wifi internet; much the same as what we offered when we had our own B & B before we became gypsies!

The weather is hot; 30°C (86°F) and humid and fortunately the B & B is perfectly air-conditioned so we are totally comfortable. Sam stays in our room and through the night explored every centimetre of it, hence I did not have the most restful sleep. Needless to say she was exhausted from her big overnight adventure and slept all day (who knows how she’ll be tonight) but I know I will sleep well regardless. Today we ventured into Bremen to do laundry, (it has been piling up for a while) have lunch and explore the town. We’ve met another couple staying here, also Travel Supreme owners, from Texas and tonight we went to a restaurant Brenda (the B & B owner) recommended in another nearby town. It has been a real change of pace for us and has been most enjoyable.
