Ditsum to Brixham, and pause

Motored all of 13 miles this morning from Dittisham out through Dartmouth and round Berry Head to Brixham.  Flat calm, searing sun - seriously.  Back on proper mobile broadband, so here's a few Ditsum pics we couldn't load before.

We came to Brixham on the way 'out' and liked it a lot - very sheltered and excellent marina service - so we're leaving her here for a week (ulp) while we go up to the Lakes to spend time with Lesley's sister Mary plus relations & friends.  It's amazingly easy: a bus every 10 mins and takes 20 mins to Paignton then less than 6 hours train to Oxenholme with one change at Brum.

So now we're cleaning - the dinghy, the boat, the bedding, our clothes, and finally ourselves.  Almost a week since we were in a marina and it all gets a bit, well, used.  It's so hot we have to stop for a rest and drink (water :-).  Lesley has gone into town for something and I really hope she gets an ice-cream on the way back.

Impossibly pretty Dittisham
