A picture for posterity

We have paid all sorts for camping. Some cheap, some expensive, some worth it, some overpriced, some places engaging, some don't care. Well, our present host Christian, (there is a long story which needs telling at a later date as to how it came to be), is a very well travelled man. He has done most of the world, seen it all, done it all apart from Australia! He has met many people and is a real global citizen having friends all over the world. 
Christian very kindly let us do some washing, and one day when we were out, we realised upon return that he had very kindly put it out to dry. That evening he struck a deal! This deal puts into context our travels so far and also puts into context how kind a man and family we are being helped by. The deal was that we could continue to stay if he could have one of our tea towels. I guess that we could not refuse the man at all, given that the tea towel was showing a place that we have been....that he hasn't! So laughably, the least well travelled people he must know, have given him some travel advice based upon a tea towel.

So the photograph serves to remind us of the tea towel but more so of Christian and Sonja, the kindness they have shown, and their potential travels to the Isles of Scilly.
