Playing with pics

That's just what I did.

This was a long way in the distance, on the other side of the estuary - thanks to my new super-camera.

And another one

Typical picnic sky - under which I ate mine

The Buckfast Abbey walk

The actual walking (and talking) began and ended at the tiny village of Scorriton. However, the refectory at Buckfast Abbey was the meeting point and focus of morning coffee and afternoon tea. The walkers also used a picnic as an excuse for a rest on the long uphill climb which resulted in impressive views. The sky looks threatening, but it hasn't actually rained for weeks and weeks.

The path, with a pig run to the left of the fence

The handsome, very happy, intelligent (!), spotted pig which demolished leftover sandwiches.

A perfect picnic spot for another time

Distant views

This walk had everything - even its own chocolate box thatched cottage.
