Another multi-part walk for us! The morning's was a stroll round the market in Newton. Only a few sheep and cattle in now, but still a bit of the atmosphere with farmers talking in huddles to a background of bleating and lowing. Then round the Pannier market and the outdoor market where we did indeed grab a bargain. Made me reflect too how nice it is to come and buy your fruit and veg fresh and local.
The afternoon saw us striding out along the South West Coastal Path (well, a couple hundred yards of it). We'd gone to Shaldon to view the wreck of the Girl Rona on the sandbar just off Teignmouth. She was still on her side and the seagulls from far and near were feasting on her catch. From the Ness carpark we walked up past the zoo and along the top of the Ness (signposted as the coastal footpath). We took in the view of the coast from the vantage points and then headed back into Shaldon and up into the botanical gardens.
I took my evening constitutional around Knowles Hill at dusk. Up Rundle Road, along Seymour Road and back down Knowles Hill Road. So many thoughts in my head. Glad to have the walk to clear them, in a place that fitted my mood exactly.
