Brian and I left Dartmouth/Stoke Fleming this afternoon and were very sad to see it go. We had a wonderful time there with amazing sites and excellent hosts. Before we left we took a self-guided tour of the local winery (Sharpham Vineyard) and did a wine and cheese tasting. All the wines were delicious; while at the local pub I always had their white. We weren't sure we'd be able to go since it is not near any town (closest is Totnes, but it's about 3 miles away) and no buses go anywhere near. But Anne and Mark drove us there and accompianed us on our excursion. We took the train back to London in the late evening and now I have to get up at about 5am to get to the airport for my flight to Genoa.
I have posted more pictures on the photobucket website in a folder called England. Here is a direct link:

Enjoy! And lets all hope I find where I am staying in Genoa tomorrow since it apparently takes 3 different buses to get there...

Haha, good luck with the buses...we all know your good sense of direction! :P
So going through your pictures...all I keep saying in my head is "mo-hee-toe!"
Also, WOW Dartmouth is pretty. The water is REALLY blue - do people get to swim in it? Or only if they fall out of a boat?
Everytime i wrote mojito i kept seeing Brian from Family Guy saying it.
People do swim in the water in Dartmouth, there are lots of little beaches. It was too cold when we were there though.
And I am in Genoa and alive! Even though one of the bus drivers dropped me off at the wrong stop...
Man, if it's too cold to swim there at the end of June...it must only be warm enough for about a week in August. Bummer.
Congrats on getting to Genoa alive! I hear Mark is going to be there soon!
