Blue Monday

I still remember the shock and awe I experienced when we went on that field trip to Lulworth Cove in 2010.

I just had no idea that the sea in Britain could look so tropically blue. The English Channel never looked like this next to Portsmouth.

I vowed to go back at my earliest opportunity; I even found an adjacent campsite to visit with Mr Z. Therefore we have been back...never.

It's nice to know that there are plenty of beautiful places to visit in the UK for when I am being a ver important exam person and can't spend all summer abroad anymore.

And the obligatory Durdle Door one...revived from a post over six years old.

That feels like a long time ago, but prompted me to note that my blog is 17 years old today. I quietly retired the pre-blogger posts some time ago, but they still exist in their text-dense glory squirreled away on my computer and in various back ups. I do mainly keep this blog up for the pleasure of reading back over my past exploits, like a true narcissist. Well, that and trying to maintain 127 posts a year. Only 68 more to go this year....it's going to be a busy November.
