Our hotel room: looks nice but was too noisy
due to the pub karaoke night directly beneath. |
| | | | |
|
A suspicious looking jackdaw. |
 |
The flag of golf flying high. |
| | | | |
 |
A flower bed doing its best to be more
beautiful than everyone else. |
 |
Looking over West Sands and the golf courses,
the quarry in the hills is lit by the sun. |
| | | | |
 |
Becky paused just long enough for me to snap this
photo of her looking saucy. |
 |
Seating area adjacent to a Jubilee course
teebox. |
| | | | |
 |
In other birds, there were Fulmars as ever nesting on
the cliffs. |
 |
Path we took out along the Jubilee course,
with daffodils, and West Sands beach off to the right. |
| | | | |
|
Beautiful gorse covered hillock on the Jubilee
course. |
 |
Gorse, of course. With view. |
| | | | |
|
Looking back towards town. Tower is St
Salvator's chapel. |
 |
Another shot of the skyline from
Jubilee. St Rule's tower is square the and cathedral ruins are right in front of it. |
| | | | |
|
Can't remember if he made it. |
 |
From macro to micro, here are some pretty
flowers. |
| | | | |
|
Mid-distance shot. The greatest canine
golfer. |
 |
Sticking with animals, here is a small bird. |
| | | | |
|
Another look back along the path we took from
town. |
 |
Being a nice day, everyone was out. This kid
had a cool seagull shaped kite. |
| | | | |
|
And this guy had a fat ride. |
 |
Here's his rig close up. |
| | | | |
|
The beach was looking fine. I love the
dark woods across the bay. |
 |
West Sands, no more, no less. |
| | | | |
|
Becky on the beach. |
 |
I couldn't get enough pictures of the sea,
sand and sky. |
| | | | |
|
But close up the beach was beautiful, too. |
 |
Becky found the myriad shells justly
fascinating. |
| | | | |
|
And someone else had clearly gone out of
their way to show their appreciation for molluscs. |
 |
The dark woods and the RAF base across the bay. |
| | | | |
|
On a day like this, I'm not sure whether I'd
choose the devil or the deep blue sea. |
 |
There were plenty of dogs soaking up the
partial sunshine. |
| | | | |
|
And frolicking in the water. |
 |
Sunny driftwood. |
| | | | |
|
Artsy black and white driftwood. |
 |
If I'm not mistaken, the dune structure is what originally
defined the links-style course. |
| | | | |
|
Dunes again. |
 |
Dunes in black and white. |
| | | | |
|
Becky leaves me behind in disgust at the number
of photographs I'm taking. |
