Saturday Stroll – Walk Among The Dead
Christchurch harbour
Sunday Stroll – Starting at the End…
Today’s stroll started with a long brisk walk, but I’ve saved you that part. We are at the top and the end of Hengistbury Head. It was sunny, but seems to have got cloudy again. At least you can still see the Isle of Wight. I do not know if this yellow object was planted by aliens or…
Look down on Mudeford Sandspit, do you want to go down there?
Would you like one of these beach huts? Some look over the harbour, others out to sea and some lucky ones have a view in both directions.
They cost as much as real houses.

£350,000 or more…
And you can’t stay overnight all year round and have to use the toilet and shower blocks…
Let’s go round to the sea shore.
Rain is threatening so we will walk round the harbour and head back.
Stay on the path here.
This leads to the dark woods of the interior, we are not going to enter in case we get lost or we can’t keep quiet.
Carry on…
… if you are ready for coffee and a little something.
Would you like a beach hut here, or just a walk?
Thursday Trail – Mud and Flood
It is not raining in this picture, but it has been raining A LOT.
No one is sitting by the river today.
Only a blogger or photographer would be stupid enough to walk here.
It is high tide.
Long ago this would have been swamp and flood plains, but humans like to tidy things up and build barriers…
No ferry today
Someone’s enjoying the water.
Time to cross the river…
…by bridge…
…and walk home up hill!
Saturday Stroll – Windy Walk
Please note, only the dog gave permission for her photos to appear. Does NOT include unflattering pictures of windswept walkers. This was the day Storm Floris hit Scotland and the north of England, but only a Force five wind on Hengistbury Head.
How do you like your walks? Windy, sunny, hilly or flat?
Serene Sunday – no sun, no rain, just…
Thursday Travels
How will you travel today?
Land or Sea?
When your bus escapes to the countryside…
When your moorings break loose…
…and you drift upstream it’s time to head for dry land.
…where you never know who you might meet.
Perhaps a day at the beach would be best…
…but keep an eye on the weather.
Or you may never be seen again…
