More from Looe

As we were based at the Looe Bay Holiday Park I obviously too quite a few pictures of the town.

Looe is split into two sections by the River Looe - the majority of the photos I took are of East Looe,  and in fact all the of the photos I have so far posted are either of the river, or of East Looe and the beach. I did take a few photos of West Looe, and they will be posted later

I loved Looe when were were staying and we visited almost every day - except for on Tuesday, when we spent the evening in as we were soaked from the torrential rain, however we did have a great day out at The Eden Project and that will be the subject of my next few posts.

The last of the St Sannan's photos

'Phew!' I hear you sigh, now more grave shots - at least for now anyway. So enjoy these and believe me I will be posting lots of new and different locations in the next day or so when I have finished working on them!

 Another Cross

 Silhouetted Cross 

 Path of the Dead.

We always try not to walk on the graves when exploring a cemetery, out of respect for the dead, but then you come across a path that is made of graves and these are some of the oldest ones, and you have no choice but to walk over them.

It makes me think, you know when you get a shiver down your spine and you say 'Someone just walked over my grave'? Well I always thought - what if someone is - in the future and I can feel it in the now?

Either that or I have been watching too much Doctor Who!

The Last Cross

Back to St Sannan's

Well it was the same visit but thought I would post some more grave photos. I promise only one more post of graves after this one and I will move on to something more cheerful instead - at least for a while. One of the things I want to do is visit as many cemeteries as I can in the area to see what the different monuments are like, and if you look at these you will see how different they can be

 Column 

 The Rook 

This one caught my eye as it reminded me of a Chess piece, and I wanted to get closer to it so I could see the shape properly, but in order to do that I had to navigate the sunken grave below:

 This grave appeared to have sunk about 4 feet, and I really did not want to end up in it! The problem in this cemetery is that in places it is so overgrown that you cannot see how sunken a grave is - or even if there is a grave under your feet!

Cwmcarn Forest Drive on a Sunny Bank Holiday

Well Bank Holiday Monday was a lovely day, so a quick trip to the Cwmcarn Forest Drive, didn't take too many photos as was enjoying the sunshine too much - anyway here are 3 I did take

The clock at Tredegar

I thought I would give you a break from the cemetery photos and post some pics of Tredegar, this town  is not far from Bedwelty and the photos were taken on the same day, and what a gorgeous day it was as well
