Polperro, Cornwall, GB - 17th March 2015

By: ScillyHH

Hi everyone,

today we visited Polperro. Polperro is a small village and fishing harbour on the south coast of Cornwall. Tourists do love this village and in the summer months it is overcrowded. But now in march it is a very quiet place and we enjoyed our visit.

First we took a look on this map.

See me in front of the idyllic harbour.

There are a lot of old fishermen's houses.

We enjoyed the sun on the pier.

In former times smuggling has been prospering. Nowadays the "Museum of Smuggling & Fishing" shows the history of smuggling. Please sea me in front of the museum.

We had a great day out in Polperro.
All the very best!

Shetland Island, Great Britain - 2nd June 2015

By: ScillyHH

Hi everyone,

This year we spent our summer holidays in the north of Scotland, one week on the Shetland island and one week on the Orkneys.

Today we explored the western part of Mainland, the biggest island of Shetland. The landscape is very impressive with some fjords. We found some great views on our way.

I saw my first Shetland Ponys. They are so cute!

In Melby we found this little harbour.

On our way back we visited Clickimin Broch. It was built nearly 2.000 years ago. People lived here for some hundred years.

Because Shetland belongs to Scotland I have completed one of my life mission: "Wants to see Scotland again".  :D

All the very best!
Lewis
