Following on from my previous post we were in Maidencombe, Devon for a break.
We did a lot of walking, probably too much. The photo above was the starting point of a walk towards Teignmouth.
Below the path opened up to some lovely sea views, even if it did look like rain.
The path was very up and down as can be seen below.
A couple of ships off shore, but a little too hazy to make them out properly.
Suddenly there was a touch of magic and the sky turned a deep blue with white clouds along the eyeline.
The bright blue sky soon disappeared but there was a lovely view to compensate.
A little further and Teignmouth was in view with its red coloured cliffs. You can just make out the town's pier.
Lovely open spaces and views. We actually lost track of the path we were meant to follow...
... but continued walking downhill.
Finally we reached Teignmouth and the pier.
Lots of sea!
The beaches were empty, a bit too chilly to sit or paddle.
We made our way into town for a meal - and a rest.
We eventually got a bus back to Maidencombe, where we were staying. The thatched pub was a tempting sight.
Once back at our apartment I noticed the sky had a pinkish tint as I looked out of the window.

All in all a lovely, but tiring, day out.

A few Torquay, Devon photos. We intended to have a day in Torquay but it rained! We still went as I wanted to see the Marina - boats galore. Here are four photos.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
All good wishes ~ Mike.
