I hemmed and hawed about it and finally decided to bring my favorite 2 pieces of cast iron when we moved over- a dutch oven and a round griddle. I was worried that they might rust, but since I use them everyday and keep them well-seasoned, there has been no problem. I'll be retrieving my fry pans next time.
A long, long time ago (in a country far, far away) I was a camp cook for a tree-planting crew. I used the dutch ovens over (and in) a campfire, 3 meals a day. I LOVE dutch oven cooking! I never made actual loaves of bread, though I have made rolls, biscuits, etc. I think I'll try a loaf sometime, I bet it would come out good. I'd probably just use my basic bread recipe - no reason to change what already works! ;-)
