Looking from Porthcadjack, past Basset Cove and Crane Islands, to Greenbank Cove, my low tide coastal route in reverse. This is closer to high tide than low tide which is why I'm on the high path rather than following the shore line!

At low tide I walk the length of coastline you see here - in either direction. It's great fun rock-hopping and occasionally wading through pools etc. It takes 1.5 hours (or more if you stop to take photos or just admire the scenery!)

An attractive town to the south of Madrid, overlooked by tourists, which makes it a pleasant place to visit for those in the know!

Porthcadjack, Cornwall Half an hour after this shot was taken, you would never have known it had been like this. The sun finally came out on the first of August and the families returned to the beaches and all was right with the world!

A Valdemanco garden, fenced off from the main road. Sierra de La Cabrera just visible. Note the hollows around the young (and therefore vulnerable to drought) fruit trees. All household waste water is usefully disposed of here. ... And this Spring has been exceptionally dry.

Sierra de La Cabrera granite and La Cabrera town. Seemingly precarious giant boulder. It is enormous but is it secure?
