TRAVEL THE WORLD - LYNTON, DEVON, U.K.

These three photos, taken in 2002, are evidence of the beauty of Devon's scenery and of why I love to go for long walks in England. The first two photos show the Bristol Channel near Lynton, and the last one was taken as we boarded the funicula to descend from Lynton to Lynmouth.

Another example, also from 2002, of the beauty of the English countryside, this one from Exmoor in Devon.

TRAVEL THE WORLD - LYNMOUTH, DEVON, U.K.

This photo of Watersmeet was taken in 2002 near Lynmouth in Devon. This was the longest walk we have ever taken. The path took us high above Lynmouth and down again to this lovely spot. On the way back we walked with a very nice English couple, making a perfect end to a perfect day.

TRAVEL THE WORLD - LYNTON, DEVON, UK

We stayed a few days here at Lynton in Devon in 2002. The town overlooks the Bristol Channel several hundred feet above its sister town, Lynmouth, which sits below at the mouth of the river Lyn. We stayed at a very nice guest house run by a lovely couple who treated us almost as if we were family. The husband invited Paul for a golf game at his club while I spent an enjoyable afternoon chatting with his wife. During our stay we climbed to the summit of the surrounding hills where there are spectacular views.
