The primary flower story will be told tomorrow so this post is a summary of what we’ve seen so far.

The weather is ideally mid 60s. Some overcast but mostly sunny. We could not have picked a better time to come.

In two weeks tourist season will have begun and the beaches we have seen empty will be full. The seaside streets will be crowded.

Everything is in bloom. Every direction we look.

Bloom shrubs and trees. Lush ferns. The southwest of the UK is beautiful.
