Solway

Sunday we were expecting bad weather but the day started out cool but clear so we decided to go for a hike and a picnic. We went to a marshland near the west coast of England.

WWII lookout post

The tide change here is unbelievable, where we are standing is under water at high tide.

Large jellyfish

Across the bay is Scotland

Closed hotel in nearby village

After our hike we drove to another little village for a picnic. Our hosts brought their camp stove along for hot tea.

An abandoned farmstead at the edge of the village.

Marker for the end of Hadrian's Wall

 More views of the old farm, the whole barnyard was surrounded by tall stone walls.

 More pretty country churches

We had a great visit with Fergal and his family, they really treated us royally.
