A treat for the girls. Our planned stop for Nuremberg didn't work out (a free stellplatz that was absolutely heaving!) so we made our way to Zindorf instead, where we could spend the night for €5 in the Playmobil Fun Park car park. It was ridiculously easy - park up in the motorhome and caravan section (this is important as the rest of the car park is automatically watered overnight), put your 5 euros in the machine and display your ticket. There's no water (apart from a water fountain for bottles), electricity or toilet disposal, but as long as you know this and arrive prepared, it's easy enough to manage. The ticket runs midnight to midnight, but as far as we could see, as long as you had a new ticket by around 9am, there were no problems with this. Of course, once there we just had to take advantage of the amazing Fun Park facility - the Playmobil Biergarten. Free entry to the public (no ticket required) after 6pm and you can stay till 9pm. What a truly genius idea. Trampolines, bratwurst, beer and games made a happy family that evening. You can also have a quick look round the main park, although it closes at 7pm so you'd need to be quick. The park is a great visit, and at 44 euros for a family of four, not too expensive either. Indoor and outdoor play, a huge water area, hotdogs for lunch and a treat from the shop. What more do kids want? We planned to stay a third night in the car park. It was quiet and peaceful and we had plenty of food and water. There was also a bus nearby that could take us into the centre of Nuremburg the next day. Sadly, on arriving back at Hans, we discovered a warm fridge that was making a strange metallic smell from the flue. A quick google online and some help form Classic Hymers and we were pretty sure it was producing carbon monoxide. So all the food went in the bin, dinner was rustled up from tins and packets and we made plans to move on to Koblenz and a proper site the next day. We'll return to Nuremburg again another time.
