title Camping at Three Rivers, Geldeston, Norfolk - 1st June 2019 intro It's another trip out for the van, together with a new inflatable awning, to Three Rivers campsite, in Geldeston on the Norfolk/Suffolk border. It's an unusual site as it's not heavily managed, only has some 20 pitches (with only three toilets, two of which are in shower rooms, to go around), and it also lets campers have real fires. Above all though it's in a lovely position nestled on a tongue-shaped strip of land that runs out between two tributaries of the River Waveney. It makes much use of this by hiring out canoes and kayaks, which enable a leisurely paddle around to the famous Geldeston Locks pub about a mile away. imgp0257 Isobel does some barbequeing imgp0258 The actual view from our pitch imgp0259 Our camp imgp0260 Camp-site tea time imgp0261 Allyson's pitch imgp0263 Toasting marshmallows imgp0264 Fred plays guitar imgp0265 Harry's happy with his humongous marshmallow imgp0268 Lydia and Fred play cards imgp0269 Harry returns from a trip to the bogs imgp0271 Isobel gives Harry a backie on her bike imgp0275 Lydia waves a fiery stick around in the dark imgp0290 The watermeadows and cows look like an oil painting imgp0292 A fork in the river imgc3444 The gang wait before our canoe trip imgc3445 Nosher, Isobel, Harry and Fred head off first imgc3447 Allyson and Benson paddle about imgc3450 A couple of swans float about imgc3456 Allyson's canoe hoves into view imgc3460 Allyson, Lydia and Benson's cap imgc3472 Allyson, Benson and Lydia pass a swan imgc3474 A sunken motor cruiser imgc3475 We disembark at the Geldeston Locks imgc3476 The famous Locks at Geldeston imgc3477 On a bridge over the Waveney imgc3478 A view along the river imgc3484 Inside the Locks Inn at Geldeston imgc3485 The Locks' bar and fireplace imgc3488 Time for a drink in the beer garden imgc3489 The Locks has been taken over by Grain brewery imgc3493 Isobel plays piano imgc3494 We're off again back to the campsite imgc3499 Lydia and Allyson get stuck in imgc3501 A dead tree by the river imgc3508 Back at base imgc3510 Harry and Benson look for stuff in the boathouse imgc3515 Allyson hangs a lifejacket up imgc3516 Milling around outside the Wherry imgc3517 Ready for the off imgc3520 It's Benson's first time on an actual road imgc3523 Isobel and Allyson return from a stick-foraging mission imgp0293 Isobel looks fed up with all the whittling imgp0294 Fred whittles some wood imgp0295 Isobel does some crocheting imgp0299 Harry returns from a successful trip to the toilets imgp0301 At the bar in the Wherry imgp0302 Lydia and Fred play cards for the umpeenth time imgp0303 The Wherry Inn, Geldeston imgp0307 The Street in Geldeston imgp0308 Interesting fish-tail sign at the Wherry Inn imgp0309 The Geldeston community hall and K6 phonebox imgp0310 Another view of the Wherry Inn imgp0313 Fred reads something imgp0325 Isobel gets a massive stick for the fire imgp0329 There's a burst of red cloud as the sun sets imgp0333 There's a pause after we've packed all the tents away
