[Photos] It's not all beautiful, of course

[marshtide]

I went on a slightly over-enthusiastic bike ride yesterday. You know how it is; well, now I'm here, I might as well go on to there, it's not much further...

Naturally, I also have photos. A couple from the lake (which may be from Monday, actually), and the rest from town and the harbour.
































Yeah, it's a mixed up little town, this one.

There are actualy surprisingly few left here, for a town which basically lives on summer visitors... the town as a whole feels kind of sad, to be honest. But at least there are some nice bits!

I guess coming from the UK one doesn't react quite as strongly! I grew up in a really old house, though a totally different style.

Coming from the UK, your reaction should be along the lines of 'omg is that wood they're build of?!'. :P

We build in wood too! And by "build in wood" I mean "have a positive fetish for wooden beams as an architectural feature." ;;;;

I think Val and J found it weirder going the other way out to Norfolk where everything is built in the only avaliable resource that isn't a turnip: flint. I mean I think J started picking up pieces of flint because they're so unusual here, but then he realised everything that wasn't mud was flint.
