Beach Nana Travels
Living the Beach Nana Life!
From RV travel to playing the ukulele, we thoroughly enjoy the “Beach Nana” lifestyle. Whether it’s exploring a new destination with our small RV or holding a “Uke Camp” jam with other “traveling ukes”, we are happy to share our experiences and what we’ve learned.
This blog segments the posts into categories to help you navigate which topics you’re most interested in. Robin also wrote for the Leisure Travel Vans blog and you’ll find additional topics for RV travel there.
“Just ask Nana”! is a regular comment from our grandkids, but it applies to our readers too. If you have questions about your RV or RV travel, drop us an email and we’ll do our best to find the answer.
