First day in Cornwall

It's getting colder in England. And when it does, what is better than to go back to your pictures from this summer, which is the best summer so far in the five years I have spend in England. We made two trips this summer - one where we went north and one where we went south. The ones from below is from Cornwall. First off is from Restormel Castle (Kastel Rostormel in Cornish) - a stronghold of the Black Prince. The castle is one of the four chief Norman castles of Cornwall (together with Launceston, Tintangel and Trematon).



Then we went on to Looe (Logh or 'deep water inlet' in Cornish) where we spent our first night. Below is Nelson, who watches over the fishing boats coming in to the harbour.







Not that vicious... ;-)


Low tide. Always amazes me.

Moonlight over Corfe Castle

This past weekend we went to Poole in Dorset to spend Saturday at the beach. On the way back we drove by Corfe Casle. The sun was about to go down - what a view!
