This year seems to be galloping by, apologies for no blog updates in September. We had a lovely break celebrating our 25th Wedding Anniversary. The first week was in Herefordshire. I even did some sketching as it was too hot to go out walking on some days. The hill in the background is Offa's Dyke, which is the border with England and Wales. It was lovely to explore a part of the UK we hadn't visited before, with the added bonus of an Indian summer. A highlight was canoeing along the River Wye. Our dog wasn't very impressed with going in a boat.

The second week, we stayed in Osmington Mills, Dorset, famous for the Smuggler's Inn, where we had two wonderful meals. It was another lovely week with lots of walking. The Durdle Door coastal path walk was about 12 miles! We also visited Abbotsbury, Portland Bill, Weymouth and the stunning Studland Bay, overlooking Sandbanks in Poole.
