Blue skies in Dorset

Lovely blue skies here in Dorset this weekend!
We trooped off to Swanage for a walk at Durlston Country Park.
Sadly didn't spot any dolphins but did find a lizard enjoying the sun too!
Stunning views.
The little jammers liked the sound of the Tilly Whim Caves (such a fab name!) but unfortunately they haven't been accessible since the 1970s. They are in fact disused quarries.
We finished up at the stone Globe. Take a look at this Flickr page for pictures of its construction in 1887.
Just time for a coffee and cake in the smart new cafe in the castle.

  2. Wonderful photos! I'm still feeling rough - so indoors for me all weekend again which is all a bit depressing and our daughter is off school today with a high temperature - talk about an invalid looking after an invalid!
