Nothing much to report yesterday. Mark drove home to collect Anais who was unable to come down with them on Saturday due to Uni. Went for a walk into town after lunch and again after tea. Did some more of my knitting. Have done some of the back and the two sleeves. Need to be careful with the wool as I only have just enough.
Today we went for a walk to Melcombe Regis, Newton's Cove and Nothe Fort. I took a few photos as we passed the marina. It never ceases to amaze me just how many boats there are, there must be hundreds. We walked through the town and over the lift bridge to the Melcombe Regis side of the old harbour  Full of lovely old buildings and lots of character. 
​We walked up the hill and over to Newton's Cove and Nothe Fort. Lovely views. A different cruse ship was out there today, the Queen Mary 2, which is apparently classed as a transatlantic ocean liner (rather than a cruise ship) and is the flagship of the Cunard Line.

Anais was collecting video footage for a Uni project and wanted some pictures of waves, taken under the water. Luckily Roman has a waterproof video camera, Unfortunately Mark's feet were not waterproof!. 
Walking back down through the gardens we encountered a very cheeky squirrel who was not bothered about us at all and in the harbour a Cormorant, or could have been a Shag, was drying its wings. Roman and Mark walked to the viewing tower at the end of the pier.
When we got to the bridge we were lucky enough to see it lift to allow a small sailing boat through.
