Puzzle Description:

Caravaning is considered very tacky were I live. (Off course half the population does and enjoys it, and why shouldn't they?.)

That trailer look way too big to be able to be pulled by that small car. :-)

Thanks for your entry!

@Adam: That's reality! :) You see here little little cars with a huge caravan (trailer) behind it. And then all the people here go to France, to the mountains, where a quarter has accidents because of their little cars with that big thing behind..

I have always heard of "caravan" as referring to a bunch of separate vehicles following each other to the same place; (group travel, if you will), but I have never heard of caravan as referring to the trailer itself. Interesting.

I too like the image and its suggested activity. A clever use of two distinct colors for the two major parts. Wasn't "caravan" a brand name of a camping trailer?

"Caravan" is the model name for the Dodge minivan (which can be used to tow a trailer).

Nice image for a small puzzle.

Caravan is often used by the British for a travel trailer and sounds to me like more of Europe has adopted it as well. I believe it refers to the wagons that Gypsys used to live in and pull from place to place and may come from the fact that they tended to travel in groups.

Interesting how PBN helps broaden ones horizons ... well, at least for those who are willing.

Wow....RV-ing is tacky where you live? Lol...here one must be well off to travel the country like that, especially considering gas prices.

Cute little puzzle!

England has caravan derby demolition racs; the caravans are just shells with nothing inside. We watched it on BBC America. It rates up there with riding lawnmower racing only the caravan racing was more fun to watch.

My parents moved to California this way -- driving a small car and pulling a trailer behind. (I think it was not a very big trailer.)
