Leaving the bus we follow a wide track downhill
Towards the sea
Where we pick up the coast path heading East
As it meanders along the cliff top
Steep climbs and steep descents
Some rather nice properties
The path stretching out before us
Stopping occasionally to take in the view
Of small beaches and rocky headlands
Bushes swarming with red admiral butterflies
Don't think we will be going down there
But we stand at the top and look down
Should make a good fry-up for breakfast
Another small bay
And a secluded beach
The ultimate beachcomber
Our path now running between hedgerows
As we drop down to Saints Bay for our morning break
Continuing on our way
We look back the way we have come
Our path takes us past
An Abreuveur
Et Fontaine
Still on the cliff tops
Hebe
Yet another beach
Looking down on Jerbourg Point
And an old gun emplacement
Herm on the horizon
And Sark a distant shadow
More steps
And a speckled wood (thanks, Angela)
We pause on another steep climb
To watch the hydrofoil bound for Jersey
Then walk round another bay
Before dropping down into Fermain Bay
Where we stop for tea
At a small cafe
Our route takes us past a slightly different garden shed
As we continue inexorably towards St. Peter Port
Past the Clarence Battery
Castle Cornet in front of us
A sea water pool
Another ubiquitous kiosk
As we enter the town
