Rod the Sundance Kid out East

Shooting from the Beach

January 2009

Rod Heeley drove his Swift Sundance motorhome from the UK to the southern tip of the Messinian Peninsula in the Greek Peloponnese. Here are some of his images taken during a rather wet winter holiday!

For more photos, click: Rod Shoots from the Beach.

You can see another illustrated article: Rod out West, the Sundance Kid Takes to the Road, describing his motorhome journey through the far south-west of England.

Rod pauses in an Aire on his way through France.
