Day 18

 Day of moving.  Today was a marathon.  

To resume: Bus to Victoria station. Tube to Paddington.  Train to Totnes.  Bus to Dartmouth.  With suitcases and bags, it was a marathon.  But we arrived at good port.  The term is right because our accomodation is near the marina of Dartmouth.

The bus ride from Totnes to Dartmouth was particulary spectacular with the landscape of hills and valley in all shades of green possible.  We passed paths so narrow...  Lise know what I am talking about.   It reminded us of when Marcel had driven in England.

The flat is just as we expected it to be.  It a small flat but each and every places is well used.  We even have fresh flowers and chocolate on the table at our arrival.  Nice touch!


Before dinner at Andria (étoilé Michelin) we went for a walk.  The marina of Dartmouth is absolutly beautiful, especially at the sunset.  We saw many young peoples fisching crab.  It seem to be hobby around here.








Andria is a very upscale gastronomy.  Each plate is so surprising and so tasty.  The service is attentive and efficient.  It was a special night for us :  52 years ago, we kissed for the first time.  

Who could have predicted where we would be after all this time...  

We finished this nice day whit a messenger with our lovely grand-daughers.

How lucky we are to live such wonderful days!!!

Only 12090 steps today as we have been in transit a long part of the day.
