Isle of Wight

I wasn't really sure where to go after Beer, but my dear friend Okka who I met in Harwich in the beginning of my journey, recommended Isle of Wight to me, so that Island became my aim. Somehow I don't have the urge to go on drifting around in England any longer, so I stayed on the Isle of Wight for one and a half weeks - never stayed longer at any other place :) And I had luck with the weather, most of the days turned out to be sunny. I pitched up my tent on a camp site on the west coast, in Freshwater, from where I made long walks along the island.
My dear friends be well prepared for a big post :)
And watch webcam here :)



































One of my first walks was to The Needles and Tennysons's Monument










The Headon Warren, which you can see on the pic above, was the aim of another beautiful walk on the island.






































On one of the days I took a bus to the south east of the island, to Ventnor.
















































Another nice walk was along the Robert Hooke Trail to Freshwater Bay.










































By taking the Robert Hooke Trail in the other direction, I was able to reach Yarmouth.












On my way back to Freshwater, I had the opportunity to meet some good friends of mine :) As you can see they loved my camera!






























 The Trail ends by the oldest church on the Isle of Wight, The All Saints Church with it's very old and impressive churchyard. I just had to take a big amount of pics, hopefully it isn't too morbid for you :)




































But my most favourite place on Isle of Wight was Totland Bay, close to the camp site, it was ideal to go for short walks, eating lunch or breakfast, drinking tea, and watching the sunset. I loved that place :)
