9th May 08 - Were Back!

Hi everyone.. were back... we took a the family for a quick break away to Harcombe House the Firefighters Charity recuperation Center. It was a bit last minute so didnt get to warn too many people..

Anyway we went last Sat (3rd May) and the weather was great for us.. we visited Exeter and Paignton , the kids got to swim (paddle actually as it was freezing) in the sea.

Ive gathered a few photos here hopefully they have come out ok.... I know the TAG guys have wonderful shots with their super technical cameras and special lenses.. alas these are just taken with a Kodak point and click lol but hopefully they are clear enough... my favourite is of the seagull close up.. shows the blue cloudless sky we had that day.



Exeter Cathedral... the detail of the stonework was amazing



Close up



Paignton Sea front.. the reddish copper colour of the sand was beautiful.



A point and click of seagulls in the distance.



My favourite nature pic.... looks very regal!



After one of the country walks at Harcombe... we take a much needed break!



This was quite a distance shot had to zoom lots to get it close enough.. its a tad blurry but was lovely to see the family swimming on the lake.



The sound from this waterfall was so peaceful yet loud.
