We have no set agenda for the day as we head toward our friends in Newton Abbot (Devon) to meet them tomorrow. Driving past Stonehenge we realise that it is a National Heritage site and so our membeship with the NZ Historic Places Trust takes us in for free. We didn't have great expectations and are surprised that the four of us find the ancient stones are so captivating. Millie is particularly intrigued at the story of this 5000 year old monument.
We grab lunch on the run and continue to drive to Axminster, the location of a River Cottage Canteen. It's a great experience, and good value for money. What a treat. Mackerel, chickpea, cauli salad, leek and potato soup with a home made sausage for the girls and an elderflower cider shared by mum and dad.
We drive on and eventually work out which farmers field it is that we are camping in over night. Little Bowd Farm is delightful. Frankie loves the chooks. We've had another great day.
