Today starts with a climb up to Hoy's Monument | |
Which we stop to inspect | |
Mary tells us about it | |
Even Richard has a look | |
Can't think of a caption which won't get me into trouble | |
We continue across the hilltop to look at St Catherine's Oratory | |
Then head downhill | |
Through a "Donate-a-Gate" organised by the Isle of Wight Ramblers | |
We have seen many of these gates on the island | |
We reach Blackgang Chine | |
With its cowboys and indians | |
More views of the Needles | |
As we make our way along the Coast Path | |
Passing Sr Catherine's lighthouse | |
Caught in the act! We continue to Niton for lunch | |
Afterwards it looks dodgy weather coming up! | |
Anne's umbrella makes another appearance | |
We are not downhearted | |
Homemade jams and jellies | |
In St Lawrence | |
With its pretty cottages | |
They've seen plenty of walkers | |
Crumbling cliffs | |
That's better on a damp afternoon | |
Mine's a green one! | |
We walk along the front | |
At Steephill Cove | |
And make our way back to the bus in Ventnor | |
Next day it's onto the ferry on a beautiful sunny day and back to the mainland and home | |
