I must leave early now from Drewsteignton and head for Exeter. There is so much to do and see around this city so I will need lots of 'virtual time'. You must read the fantastic write up on POE, lots of lovely photos, maps and accommodation listed also. http://www.picturesofengland.com/England/Devon/Exeter Amongst the attractions in or near Exeter: Cathedral, River Ex, Northern Hay Gardens, Powderham Castle, Killerton House, A La Ronde and Pinhoe EXETER CATHEDRAL Picture by Stephen RIVER EX Picture by BPeters |

But I guess they are the shy types! So to amend yesterday's tour so that we can visit these lovely places, we need to take a bit of a detour. After leaving Buckfastleigh heading towards Newton Abbott we turn left instead of right and we can visit the lovely scenery at Bovey Tracey Beautiful Waterfalls Picture by Lorry Parton Gorgeous scenery Picture by Lorry Parton

Hope you are all having a wonderful day wherever you are and whatever you are doing. Tomorrow morning I will reveal where we are off to for the next two days (as if you haven't guessed, lol)! Talk to you all tonight to catch up with what you have seen/done in DEVON. At least, I hope someone will Pics of Lyme Regis Picture by Ricardo Malagueño Picture by Peggy Cannell Picture by Ken Brazier
