		Day 1, Day 2, Day 4
		Yesterday the bus, today the tram! Brian loves his journeys, and it enables us to do linear walks, well this was a D shape. First we catch the tram from Colyton to Seaton (down the straight bit of the D and then walk back round the curve) .
		Brian has reserved an early tram especially for us.
		All aboard
		Downstairs
		And up .
		Hi there - co-ordinated use of the track .
		Our driver stops the traffic at Colyford .
		Including some in authority! .
		No time for gents to nip to the loo .
		We have wide views over the estuary .
		Some people paddle their own canoes .
		All good things come to an end .
		Off we go along Seaton sea front - big hill ahead .
		After a little walk up the estuary, we head towards Lyme Regis .
		Up and up past the golf course .
		Nearing lunchtime we hear the roar of distant motorcycle scrambling, but they stop just as we settle down for lunch on the hillside .
		Down we go via a stream bed .
		And have a much closer view of the proceedings.
		Some get very close .
		What a hillside they race up and down, whilst most of us take it more gently .
		Down the other side we cross a soggy valley .
		Finding a suitable bridge to cross and pose .
		Our leader is concerned in case the bridge can't stand the weight of all our excellent meals at the hotel .
		Who's in charge here? .
		Only one more mini hill and we spot Seaton down the river, but our cars are waiting for us where we started our tram ride . Another day, another profile - aren't we doing well? .
