The ferry across the Tamar. From Devon to Cornwall.


And Devonport is the home of the naval dockyards. Recently the nuclear submarines have been moved here from Scotland. There were at least two present today.Bottom centre in this picture.

A much nicer view from the rooftop bar of the Radisson Blu Brasov.

The Transylvania region of Romania is just beautiful.

Saint Katerina’s/Catherine’s gate.



Inside the fortified church of a village. When attacked, everyone came inside to live and stay for however long.

As seen from the Hullo terminal Nanaimo, logs floated and towed into position being load onto a ship. It quiet a sight to see the loading teams skip over logs, chain them wtc with ease.
As the log numbers decrease, the little tug zips around mustering the remaining log into bundles. What a job!

Dinner tonight was at Bran Castle, with our host Vlad taking us on a tour and introducing his wife and two brothers. “Vlad” was really good, but with a wicked sense of humour. Dinner was served on the third floor. Toilets were at ground level. There were an awful lot of narrow, steep stairs in between! (My apologies, but I could not show the interiors without the exterior “office”.)

Views from Plymouth Hoe. Some rocks.


And Mount Batten where Lawrence of Arabia was stationed briefly to fly sea planes.
