| First time on new cycle track | 2014-11-29 | Lizs first cycle ride in ages and first ride on new cycle track between Powderham church and the Turf Locks |
| Poole to Keyhaven | 2019-05-17 | From Poole Harbour into the Solent to anchor up at Keyhaven. With the easterly winds continuing, this sail and motor took us out of Poole Harbour (past Brownsea Island and the Sandbands/Studland chain ferry). We then past Bournemouth, Boscombe (where the cliff top hotel I grew up in has been knocked down) and Christchurch Ledge. We took the northern channel into the Solent going past Henry VIII's Hurst Castle and The Trap. We anchored off Keyhaven to wait for enough tide to allow us to get into the Keyhaven anchorage (which is just north of Hurst Castle). A stunning location, we were the only boat anchored there! |
| Dunstanburgh Castle and Craster | 2016-09-07 | Another day, another Northumberland beach for Scooby. A great walk along to the evocative ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle and then the excellent beaches at Embleton Bay. Back via Craster where the famous smoked fish shop / restaurant was advertising an interesting take on Cullen Skink soup. Unfortunately, they were shut at the time... |
