Salisbury Day Three - Lyme Regis & Weymouth

Today we hit the road early and head to Lyme Regis. Helen only tells me once we're there that a Jane Austen book Persuasion was set here and it was used for the movie also. It is however the first time I have seen the English Channel.

It's a cute seaside resort, and it's a beautiful day. We spend a couple of hours walking around taking in the blue sky and fresh sea air.

Now that we're on the coast, we drive along, stopping at various small villages along the way. Each is quite different, even the type of sand or pebbles at each beach seems different. We're being real Sunday drivers today.

Eventually we stop at Weymouth, a busier centre. We park and walk around for a couple of hours. The beach sand here is beautiful, very fine, almost like powder and does not feel gritty. We walk up and down the "old harbour" and watch boats come and go. It's sunny here, but there is a cold wind.

A very nice relaxing day. And thankfully the weather has been beautiful. More of the same tomorrow please!
