BECK'S BIG OVERSEAS ADVENTURE

Wednesday, July 20, 2005

Going south for the summer..

It's so easy to escape the city when you've got a trusty steed!.. and his trusty navigating gnome, Noah... Larry took us down to Dorset for the weekend.. we set off on Saturday night for a campsite on a farm in Wareham.. waking up to the loud mooings of cows all around us..

after a bbq breakfast of bacon and eggs (amongst some very loud mooings of protest for farmyard friends).. we set off to Lulworth Castle, and then onto another castle for a quick wander before heading to Lulworth Cove.. a pretty pebble beach village where we had fish and chips and baked in the sun..

Then we trekked over the headland (amongst more cows) to Durdle Door.. a pre-historic geologic wonder.. well at least it was a rock that Blake could climb on and jump off.. we ticked another English Experience off the list by swimming in the English Channel!!.. IT WAS FREEZING!!.. luckily it was a hot day so sporadic 5 second dips were welcomed to cool off.. we spent a lovely afternoon sunning, swimming and throwing rocks and then headed back to london (via a nice old english pub for some dinner)..
