Part 8 here<\/a><\/em>
\nIn the morning we went to the Museum, showing history of RVs or motor homes.
\nI spent a lot of time observing the process of the vehicle creation.<\/p>\n

\"\u0424\u0438\u043d\u0430\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0430\u044f

Final Inspection<\/p><\/div>\n

After that we went to look to the actual motor homes<\/p>\n

\"\u0418\u043d\u0442\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0441\u043d\u043e\u0435

Interesting solution – the hammock in the 60th RV<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\u0428\u0438\u043a\u0430\u0440\u043d\u044b\u0439

It does look like a house. There is no feeling that there is a car<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\u0414\u0432\u0435\u0440\u044c

Kitchen and Pantry<\/p><\/div>\n

\"DAD_6032\"<\/p>\n

\"\u0414\u0430\u0436\u0435

We even found a space for our cat!<\/p><\/div>\n

Next we went to the part of museum where really old vehicles are presented. The earliest RV was created in 1913 – more than a hundred years ago, can you imagine that? Some of the vehicles look so funny, that we couldn’t stay calm and laughed a lot. But from time to time I caught myself on a sad thought – while our grandmas hand washed the clothes, didn’t have a bathroom in the house, people in America had such a luxury as motor homes…<\/p>\n

\"\u0421\u0430\u043c\u044b\u0439

The very first RV in US, made in 1913<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\u0417\u0430\u043c\u0435\u0447\u0430\u0442\u0435\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0430\u044f

That car is awesome – it was made in 1916 and have a bed compartment, kitchen and drawers outside the vehicle<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\u0417\u0434\u0435\u0441\u044c

Here is kitchen<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\u042f\u0449\u0438\u0447\u043a\u0438

Drawers for the stuff<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\u041d\u0435\u043a\u043e\u0442\u043e\u0440\u044b\u0435

Some of the cars look very weird<\/p><\/div>\n

\"DAD_6058\"<\/p>\n

\"\u0423

Doesn’t it look like the tank inside?<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\u0417\u0430\u0442\u043e

On the other hand, it has folding toilet!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\u0422\u043e\u0436\u0435

This is very unusual looking too<\/p><\/div>\n

\"DAD_6064\" \"DAD_6068\"<\/p>\n

\"\u0410

That car can tow a trailer<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\u0428\u0435\u0441\u0442\u0438\u043c\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043d\u044b\u0439

This is for six people. Exactly what we need!<\/p><\/div>\n

We had a lot of fun in that museum, I’m glad that we found it.<\/p>\n
