Hi all, Well it has been a while since I updated this, so apologies. Last I wrote was about liverpool and the campervan and we were in Oxford at the time, well  now we are in a caravan park, near Slough and Windsor.

We arrived here last Monday because on our way to France we decided that our very much loved but very old and unreliable camper may very well not make it all the way to the Russian border, so it is here we wait until she sells.

First though, i will write a little bit about Oxford.  Oxford was truly beautiful, the whole town centre is made up of Oxford University, and it holds a great historic and scholary feeling when you are there.    Some of the building date back to the 11th centuary, amazing. I have attached some photos so hopefully you can get a glimpse of what I mean. Only bad point is that  it is covered with tourists, you cant get away from them.

Windsor is another very touristy town and thank God, we are well otuside its borders.  We are about a ten minute drive from windsor, and you pretty much follow the Thames river, whish is stunning also and happens to lie right behind our caravan park.  So Windsor is famous, for its castle, its the queens castle or something a long those lines.  John and i decided not to enter, for £14 each we thought it wasn't worth it, oh for those who dont know how many pounds to our dollar it would have cost us nearly $37 each. We had a good look around tho, and went on a boat trip and saw where Natalie Imbruglia lives, noice.
