We arrived at this iconic location at exactly the same time as a million tour buses, as you can see. Okay, so we exaggerate!
We've renamed this beach "Penguin Beach" because that's what we think allLeggi altro

I just did not expect that many sightseers. Not very good for taking good photographs of the area

We left our accommodation this morning in low spirits. The weather was heavily overcast, it was wet - the very wet stuff where you get very wet, wetter than a bank holiday in Blackpool and that's veryLeggi altro

So, having taken more photographs than you'd be prepared to suffer, we then took a break in the cafe where hot soup and coffee were the order of the day. Not in the same bowl, by the way ... we areLeggi altro
