Oh I do Like to be Beside the Seaside...

We jumped in our camper van in east London and were in Whitstable within the hour. Young JJ dined on oysters and haddock and an ice cream as big as he was - nearly. We left on a whim - the weather was beautiful and when we arrived discovered all the hotels were full. No worries, though, as we discovered the wonderful Homing Park, a caravan park complete with restaurant and bar. I managed to get a flat battery (lights left on from the Blackwall Tunnel) but the lovely accommodating Julie let us in after hours. 
The family-owned campsite provides electricity (although I was not organised to have a cable) and boasts award-winning showers it seems. Their family room (shower and toilet) certainly boasted a shower that managed to soak me, JJ and all our clothes, which was a shame as I had only brought a tea towel to dry ourselves with.
