It's not too late to book a last-minute National Trust #SummerHoliday 🏡🌞 nationaltrust.org.uk/holidays/top-s…
We can't go long without visiting Wicken Fen. There is a fascinating addition at the moment: an installation that plays recorded sounds from underwater as you go along the boardwalk plus headphones in a hide and Visitors' Centre. We went early to avoid the crowds. Recommended!
