I am currently in Devon, enjoying short stays with long-time friends and family. After getting used to life on Skye, it is always a bit of a shock to come south and find myself in queues of traffic, and seeing crowds of people thronging along pavements in the towns!
The journey down was a bit of a challenge - we'd had a lot of snow...

I had an overnight stop in Morecambe. I don't think I had ever visited the town before, but after a short wander round, I think I may have to visit again. I was impressed by the attempts at urban regeneration that are going on, and also at the amount of 'public art' that is to be found everywhere.

I've been in Torquay this week. The weather has been raw, damp and grey - not really conducive to going out for walks. But I've had my usual shopping to do, so have popped by the sea front here a couple of times.

I'm off to my sister's near Okehampton tomorrow for a couple of nights, then begin the trek back north. I may post some more pictures if I get the chance to take any!
