Planning 7 months across Europe - HELP!

Hi all,

I am new to the forum, but have already started gathering loads of useful hints and tips on caravanning in Europe.

We are new to caravanning also - bought our first van last year...(Lunar Quaser 544)

However, we are planning an ambitious 7 month trip across Europe leaving this April, and need as much help and advice as you can give! 

We' are me, my wife (both late 30's), and my 2 daughters (aged 9 and 6).

We have a rough route planned, covering Spain, Southern France, Corsica, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Sweden, Denmark and Germany (i.e. avoiding places would go on a 2-3 week holiday in future).

I welcome your help:

- General useful hints and tips - Things to do before I go, when we are there, and also what not to do!

- Must see places (ideally family friendly, but not necessarily!)

- Guide to the best sites, and ones to avoid.

- Help on 'Wild Camping' - advisable? Where is best / where to avoid?

- Anything else you can suggest, especially any practical advice to a relative newbie!

(note: I have the basics covered I think(!) Camping Key, ACSI, Caravn Club Europe books, Caravan / Breakdown / Travel / Car Insurance, Solar Panels)

Really look forward to hearing your comments and suggestions.

Thanks

Matt
