scooter probably checking that out

Camp Elsdon
this place is perfect, we arrived on the ferry at 5pm and came here (a former US military hospital from WW2) where we relaxed had dinner and a nice long chat to the friendly locals.

Great place to stop for a break and sample the oysters, ate a dozen cooked and enjoyed them very much, almost as good as our Bluff oysters down south.
