September 4/5 2008 - Houghton Mill campsite, Cambridgeshire

This was our first trip out in the campervan which we bought this summer. Despite the constant rain on the Friday, which allowed us to get a lot of reading and card-playing done, it was very enjoyable. Photos include: us in an around the van; the mill at Houghton, apparently the only surviving mill on the River Great Ouse; interesting buildings in Houghton/Wyton village; a Vulcan which flew very low over us on several occasions on the Thursday evening - a bit of internet research suggests it may be the only Vulcan currently flying; and a Swallow which was tending three nestlings in a nest in the roof of the toilet block - they may well be in Africa by now.
