As we approached the bridge it look awesome …
but what a fantastic view from the top of it …
We drove to Queenborough where we found the old harbour and we stopped for coffee …
We then drove on to Sheerness and Minster where we stopped overlooking the beach for lunch …
After lunch we made our way across the island to Leysdown-on-Sea which was very rough and full of statics. We then had to retrace our steps as the road was a dead-end and on our way back we noticed a road to the Ferry House Inn and an RSPB viewpoint. It was a very old road which took us across a completely uninhabited part of the island until we reached a couple of farms and the pub. We could look across the River Swale towards Oare …
and then we went to the viewpoint to watch the birds and have a cuppa. However it was this little chap who got captured on my camera …
the birds were all flying too quickly for me! As we left though we spotted these two Oystercatchers sitting on a fence and then they took off …
It was now time to leave the island and I got this shot looking eastwards from the bridge …
and driving around Canterbury on our way back ...
When we arrived at the site Mike received a phone call from his doctor at Treliske. She said not to worry about the blood test but to enjoy our holiday and she would see him on our return. What a nice lady!
