Taken last winter on the Algarve in Portugal. 3 fivers can be seen, and although it looks crowded each site has enough room to offer privacy and still be sociable with your neighbors. Our fiver is on the left, next to us are a couple from the former East Berlin in Germany.

what did you tow the fiver with? the nissan? is it a diesel? nice setup.

I know you guys will find it hard to believe, but yes towed with the Nissan, 2500cc turbo intercooled diesel. Get about 15 MPG (us gals), you can see another Nissan in background.

Man........you guys get all the neat cars/trucks over there.

we have a choise of a big cummins, big powerstroke, or big duramax, none will net half the unloaded MPG's your truck will get.

This is the Lake Conroe KOA in Conroe, TX. The KOA is about a mile-ish west of the lake, but this campsite is very nice. Lots and lots of sites to choose from, activities for kids and adults, pool, ice cream social, typical KOA stuff.

This is site #150, which is on one of their small man-made lakes. The big gazebo behind the site hangs out over the lake, and it's a great place to picnic, play cards, etc.

We go to Double Lake National Recreation Area, outside Coldspring, TX, a lot to mountain bike. There are also trailheads for the Lone Star Hiking Trail. There are tent sites, partial hook ups, full hook ups, and picnic area. And a lake of course. No concessions.

This is site #57. It's a double site, so #56 is right next door, but both sites have hookups.

This is another site at Double Lake National Recreation Area outside Coldspring, TX.

This is sites #34, and #35. It's a big "double" site, perfect for camping with friends. There are full hookups for both sites.

This picture was taken before our friends arrived. They pulled in forwards, so we could open up both awnings towards the center. This requires some extra electrical cord and water hose (sewer hose also, if you are staying long enough for that). Or you could back in the second RV in a more traditional set up.

It was a perfect arrangement. We had a big group of cyclists camping for the weekend, and these 2 sites became the social center. Everyone else was tent-camping, and just walked across the road where we were.

It was very nice - lower numbered spots are on the water. The bridge to the gulf is about a half mile away - perfect to spend the morning or afternoon at the beach. There is a nice pool and when we were there they were expanding their facilities for more showers / bathrooms, etc. Plenty of restaurants / grocery stores in the vacinity.
