Today was a walk up the Coppice, sightings from a Harris Hawk to a 5 spot Burnet Moth, and all points in-between, including the damage to the memorial at the peak.
And so it comes to an end, as all good things must do! Our last proper day in Denmark before the journey back to the land of daily grind!
That being the case we stayed local & traipsed around the Island of Tasing & the lower half of Langeland.
Once more an idyllic little thatched cottage on Tasing - Capes Hoj Neolithic burial mound - The little fishing harbour at St.Joul, Tasing, looking towards the Langelands road bridge - Memorial to the crew of the RAF Short Stirling "EF 137" which was shot down by a night fighter & crashed into the shallow waters off the East coast of Tasing by Vemmenaes - Then off to Bagenkop on Langeland for a snap of the Church - The Wild "Exmoor" Ponies of Bagenkop - And their Cousins - The Baltics supposed to be calm! - A nose round Rudkobing - And a little two master coming into Spodsbjerg harbour.
Awe, love those donkeys.
Looks like you have had a lovely time..now it will be hard getting back to the grindstone.

Newquay......not been down there for quite a few years.
I always loved that little bit of land with the house on top......would have loved to have lived there.
Some beautiful pictures and they have brought back some happy memories of times down there.....though not the one where the seagull dropped a bum bomb on Ma's best navy blue coat.. It was ruined despite my best efforts.

They think it's all over! Gotcha!
We had to head back across Fyn to catch a ferry, so we bobbed into Faaborg to do a bit of shopping & there was an old timer American cars Rally/display on, to good a chance to miss really.
Pontiac Firebird 350 - VW Kübelwagen - A couple of Stingrays - Chevrolet Camero SS - Corvette & a Ford Angla (worlds apart) - Mettalic blue leather??? - A proper oldtimer - MG - Triumph 255 i - After dawdling & not being able to make the ferry we took the road route "One & one's spouse stopped at the Aabenraa Yacht club dontcherknow, for a spot of late luncheon!" & this was the view over the Fjord.(Me being the peasantry I am, I had the burger menu though, Marion showed more class & took a multiple fish option )
Today is a departure in that "dads taxi" was brought into service again. Winfields sponsored a charity walk for the Rossendale Hospice and I snapped a few of the Winfields entrants and a few more. You will notice Ted Robbins in a few of the pictures, I didn't, I was that focused on the fancy dressed entrants I missed him altogether and only noticed him when he had been uploaded.
