We head off in Oxford
A Camper Van Odyssey: Oxford, Salisbury, New Forest and Barton-on-Sea - 19th June 2011
The Camper Van commences a 1,000-mile odyssey, starting in Suffolk and heading in a more-or-less south-westerly direction towards Oxford, via the joys of Luton. At Oxford, we crash over with Caty and Danielli for a night, before heading South towards the coast. After a night of actual camping at the Roundhill campsite just outside Brockenhurst in the New Forest, we head over to see Fred's great-grandmother, and the para-sailing action on Barton-on-Sea cliff top.
