Wir spazierten noch gemütlich zum Pier und konnten dort wieder Sonne tanken. Leider hat sich Gabis Wunsch, am Bournemouth Pier im Key West Grill eine groooße Fischplatte zu essen, nicht erfüllt. Warum? Weil sie dort kurz vorm Schließen waren, aber einen leckeren Cocktail namens Sex on the Pier gab's noch. Hurra 🍹

Das Abendessen gab's dann beim World famous Harry Ramsden, der bekannt für seine leckeren Fish&Chips ist.

Resumee: ein sehr gelungener Tag!Read more

Day 38
Day 38 Poole
July 7, 2022 in England ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
Länge: 20 km
Gesamt-Strecke: 1.014/1.014 km
Dauer: 6 Stunden
Höhenmeter: ca. 200 m
Wetter: leicht/mittel bewölkt, leichter Wind, Sonne
Es ist also soweit, der letzte Tag auf dem SWCP. Am Morgen bin ich in Rekordzeit fertig mit allem, wahrscheinlich wegen der Übung in den letzten Wochen 😅 Dann gehe ich zum Meer und laufe den Weg entlang. Ich werde es vermissen, nach über 5 Wochen direkt am Meer, daher versuche ich es nochmal zu genießen. Der Weg verläuft erstmal direkt an Klippen und kommt dann nach Swanage rein. Dort lege ich eine kurze Pause ein und dann geht es an den letzten Anstieg die Klippen hoch zum Highlight des Tages: Den Old Harry Rocks. Das sind weiße, beeindruckende Kalksteinfelsen im Meer, die aufgrund der Erosion dort teilweise frei stehen. Hier versammeln sich natürlich die Touristen, daher geht es weiter für mich und die letzten 5 Kilometer laufe ich direkt am Meer den Strand entlang. Dazu ziehe ich die deutlich gezeichneten Wanderschuhe aus und laufe barfuß, den Rest des Tages verbringe ich in Flipflops 😋 Schlussendlich komme ich wirklich am Ende des SWCP an, an einem kleinen Monument am South Haven Point an. Ich habe es geschafft, leider ist es nur ca. die Hälfte des gesamten Weges geworden, aber trotzdem bin ich etwas stolz und zufrieden 😊 Da ich ganz Cornwall wandertechnisch ausgelassen habe, reizt mich es das irgendwann nachzuholen. Vielleicht ja nächstes Jahr oder wann auch immer. Falls jemand Lust bekommen hat mich zu begleiten, gerne melden (maybe you Chris 😜). Ansonsten endet die Berichterstattung hier, macht’s gut und bis bald (spätestens bei der nächsten Reise).Read more

Day 2
The best laid plans cancelled
May 22, 2021 in England ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C
After a lovely cooked breakfast - full English for me and Avocado on toast for Lynette we set off to visit Montacute House. About 50m up the rouad the car gave a warning that a tyre was low in pressure. Seems like we picked upa small puncture when we hit a pothole yesterday afternoon. We inflated the tyre and drove into Dorchester to a tyre repaairer - they found the puncture but it couldnt be repaired as it was on the sidewall. So, we filled the tyre with "goo" to seal it and then drove to Mercedes to buy a replacement goo. Seems to be working ok, fingers crossed. After that lot we went to Bridport for a few hours - nice old town with a market and live music. We had lunch there and then went to West Bay on the coast where the sun cam out. yay! After that drove back to our pub. Off out tonight for a meal in a nice old thatched cottage.Read more

Einen Ort nach 12 Jahren wiederzusehen, ruft Erinnerungen auf. Das Gute daran: es waren hauptsächlich schöne. Deshalb sind wir wieder hier. Lukas, ein Freund aus München, den ich hier kennenlernte und ich. Den ersten Tag sind wir also viel gelaufen, unsere alten Wohnungen angeschaut, das College und der Beach.
Natürlich kommt man hier um ein paar Dinge nicht herum. Darunter auch ein english breakfast und die amusementcenter.
Den Abschluss des Tages genossen wir in einem wirklich hippen und leckeren Restaurant direkt gegenüber unseres Hotels.
Bis bald

Day 1
1. Old Harry Rocks to Swanage
October 12, 2020 in England ⋅ 🌧 12 °C
We walk across high chalk grassland to reach the Old Harry Rocks; these mark the eastern end of the Jurassic Coast (a UNESCO world heritage site) which starts here and finishes at Orcombe Point, near Exmouth. The rocks are chalk and the original formation used to stretch as far as the Isle of Wight, linking up with The Needles there. They are really impressive, but you do not want to get too close to the edge of the steep cliff!

Not far from here are the pointed chalk stacks known as The Pinnacles. We walk further, crossing the end of Ballard Down at Ballard Point and the start of the Purbeck Way, to reach the steep, but stepped, descent to New Swanage. From here we see Ballard Down behind beach groynes, which help intercept water flow and sediment movement.

We have good views of Swanage as we enter it, noting the Wellington clock tower (originally built for London Bridge) and Swanage Pier in the distance, as well as beach huts closer by.Read more

Poole UK
July 25, 2019 in England ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
We drove to Poole where Andrew and Jenny visited his elderly parents and we meet up with Tabitha and James Smith who were part of our YAS group at church. They took us to Rick Steins Restaurant for lunch which was an amazing meal then we wandered around the Poole main city centre and beach. Afterwards Judy went back to Littlehampton and I stayed overnight so I could see my cousins son Steven Dodd who is in rehab in Bournemouth recovering from major spinal injury from an accident. I then took train back east.Read more

Day 2
Poole - The Old Town
October 10, 2020 in England ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
After lunch we follow the so-called Cockle Trail through Poole Old Town.

We start at the Quayside and see the Custom House, a Grade II listed Georgian building now used as a restaurant. We walk up Thames Street, past many beautiful buildings and St James Church (closed), to reach the lovely West End House, built by a Newfoundland merchant. We go up Market Street to Guildhall, enjoying a new lease of life as a wedding venue. From here we double back down High Street, with its many old buildings, to Poole Museum. We see the Poole logboat, an Iron Age boat found in the harbour; the museum is extremely interesting and features local history.

Later, we meet up with two old friends who moved to this area from Duxford six years ago. Beers and an excellent Indian dinner follow!Read more

Day 2
Poole - The Quays
October 10, 2020 in England ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C
Poole is a large coastal town in Dorset, well known for its natural harbour. We arrive there on the Purbeck Breezer bus from Corfe Castle village and embark on the Rotary Club Five Quays Walk.

We walk through Baiter Park and arrive at the interesting Fisherman's Dock on Poole Harbour before proceeding along Poole Quay - lots of nice pubs here (two were visited later in the day). We walk along Great Quay, passing the Sea Music Sculpture, and walk onto the Twin Sails Bridge; we were lucky as it opened a little later and we saw why is named so from West Quay. Lifeboat Quay is the home of the RNLI College and Trainng Centre; there is incredible architecture and a beautiful memorial honouring all lifeboats men who have lost their lives (they are all named).Read more
