More holiday pics

Just last week we visited Brixham and Totnes. A very changeable day weather wise so made use of the good bits. Just a few miles from where we were staying in Paignton, Brixham is well known for fishing and this Banksy painting was just outside the fish market by the harbour. This was beside a door from which one could buy fish.



There were quite a few mosaic murals that decorated the walls opposite the fish market






We visited the replica of the Golden Hind. Quite a small boat but worth a visit to see how seafarers lived back in Tudor times.






Found this above a fish and chip shop



In the afternoon we went to Totnes, but soon after arriving there there was a rain storm so we spent some time in a tea to (mostly) sit it out.




The High Street is quite narrow and uphill, but there were some unusual shops to see.


We found our way to the Castle but unfortunately it was closed, this was the nearest I could get.

However I did make some fabric purchases in sewing shops in both towns



Saturday was spent In Exeter, before going home on Sunday. It was a really good break away with good company. It shouldn't be too long before we have another break.

There'll be some sewing on the blog soon.
