The size of Guernsey. Miles that is…as the crow flies from one coast to the other. Cycled all the way across to the west coast. 40 minutes. 8 km…as the bike rolls. Beautiful farm land and rugged coast with remnants of coastal defences both Napoleonic and from German occupation during WWII.
Bumblebees everywhere. Everywhere. No mosquitoes. No midges. Happy days.
Fixing the first flat tire I’ve ever had on this bike. The inner tube had done over 6,000km, which isn’t bad. The valve just blew out of the tube.
Fort Saumarez lookout tower. Nazi army built it on top of a Victorian Martello tower.
Everywhere!
Football sustenance.
Watching England v Scotland in the Women’s World Cup.
Canada plays tomorrow!!
Hi Tony and Margaret, really had to laugh at the Wonky Donkey beer photo as I have just purchased the book, The Wonky Donkey for my 2 yo great nephews!! We will be seeing them in Victoria next week. Will be spending more time over there as Theo and my mom are also living on the island.
Love your blog. Look forward to more posts.
