Waking up in the cottage garden.
|
The cats kept an eye on us as we took down the tent.
|
The outside of "Court Gate Cottage", where Richard and Nancy live.
|
In only a couple of hours, the tent was set up again further south, this time supervised by Fiona's friendly dog.
|
Adina picking berries while lending a sense of scale to the towering hedgerows.
|
The beautiful Devon coast.
|
Hats tied on so as not to have to chase them down the steep hills (and/or cliffs).
|
The sailboats were taking advantage of the steady wind.
|
As were the playful seagulls.
|
Looking down to the crashing waves and bird-covered rocks.
|
Adina making her way through the kissing gate.
|
The path was narrow but in good shape, though some of the bracken was rather prickly.
|
Looking into the harbor of Inner Hope.
|
Lunch: salami, local happy-cow brie, fresh bread, fruit scone, dates, tomatoes, Devon blueberry preserves, and local clotted cream fudge.
|
Adina eating meat.
|
On the busy beach in Inner Hope.
|
Boats awaiting high tide.
|
More boats.
|
Adina serving tea at the hotel overlooking the beach.
|
Looking back as we headed home.
|
A little further along.
|
Looooong evening shadows on the trail.
|
Sunset begins.
|
The sun takes its time going down.
|
Gold-tinted clouds.
|
The moon rising through the clouds.
|
A few minutes later.
|
Adina bundled up for the long sunset.
|
Peter was pretty bundled up as well.
|
The moon starting to take over...
|
More color as the higher clouds joined in the act.
|
The light was starting to fade by this time.
|
One last look.
|
After cleaning up, we continued our three-day-old Scrabble game.
|
Life in the tent with a lopside Scrabble board.
