From Wales we made a quick detour down to Stonehenge (we now have a rental camper van). It's amazing that something thousands of years old and so significant is still standing, we got there early before the first busloads from London arrived so it was nice to see it at a quiet time.
We tried cycling the backroads on the way back to the campsite and ended up getting lost again, this time in the middle of a military firing range with lots of signs warning us not to touch anything that looked like it might blow up.

NO RIGHT TURN!
It was interesting being in North Wales, the scenery was so nice and it was interesting to hear so many people speaking Welsh all the time, people in shops, families, everyone, switching seemingly effortlessly back and forth into English. All the signs are also in both Welsh and English. I picked up a few words:
Borayda = good morning (don't know about the spelling)
diolch = thanks
araf = slow
dim parcio = no parking
beicio = bikes
Tara for now

Glad to hear and see you're having such a great trip. Please say hi to all the family when you're in England and please bring a whole heap of decent teabags if you can cram them into your bus when you come down ;)
