Caravans in literature
This story happened on: 15/03/2012
My favourite quote on caravanning is from Kenneth Grahame's 'Wind in the Willows' - I have this quote on the pinboard next to my workspace at the office:
Caravanning
'There you are!
There’s real life for you,
embodied in that little cart.
The open road,
the dusty highway,
the heath,
the common,
the hedgerows,
the rolling downs!
Camps, villages, towns, cities!
Here to-day,
up and off to somewhere else tomorrow!
Travel,
change,
interest,
excitement!
The whole world before you,
and a horizon that’s always changing!'
Kenneth Grahame
from ‘The Wind in the Willows’ Chapter II (1908)
Anybody else have favourites?
