Hi, We have just caught up on Your videos great content the first time We crossed to Sweden was in 1980 direct from Newcastle to Goteburg and the most recent in 2023, We will look forward to Your next video.
We were caught in similar situation on our drive back from Nordkapp with our caravan last year . We were able to get over the bridges and tunnels but in France and Belgium we found the motorways are very un protected without trees or earth banks from side winds. It was very dangerous at times with wind gusts throwing us about.
You can, I think, pay less by booking in advance and I think there are also some deals to be had by subscribing to their newsletter. Also I think the length of our caravan took us into a higher price band. But the alternative options are limited and have aren't that different in price anyway.

Thank you, I'm really glad you liked the videos. One or maybe two videos still to.come on the Sweden trip.

We've had to cancel or delay several trips in the past due to high winds when towing. Certainly not worth taking the risk.
Hi Dave have you reimagined this journey in a motorhome?
Hi Tony, Yes we have, it would certainly reduce the ferry and bridge prices a fair bit. 🤣

@@DTSquared Wonder how the would effect that expensive bridge crossing? Looks like not an affordable trip for us
Wow, that bridge is expensive to cross!
very impressive to do and well worth it as its cheaper than the detour and ferry costs

Yep even in overcast weather it's still pretty impressive. And it is a long bridge.
