Holiday Diary - Day 46

As promised, there were a lot of photos taken today, so I have plenty for you to look at.

First off, we drove to Buckfastleigh to catch a train to Totnes and back. Here are some of the photos we took along the way.













After leaving Buckfastleigh we headed for Paignton but we got a little muddled when we changed the destination to the postcode given on the leaflet and ended up head for the other end of the track at Kingswear before changing it back to Paignton. We would have probably been better off sticking with Kingswear as the destination as it tool us an extra half hour to get to where we were going and we ended up on the last return train of the day.

Here are some of the photos we took on this leg of our journey.

The train we planned on catching on the other side of the River Dart

How we got across the river








I tried taking a couple of panoramas while on the moving train. It will be interesting to see if Google's Auto-Awesome will stitch these together. If you want to see any of the panoramas taken so far, just check out the holiday folder I've shared on Google.

Here is the first one.











Here is the second set of panorama shots.









We drove from Paignton to Torquay and got there just in time to ride the Cliff Railway down to the bottom, take a few photos and ride it back to the top.






After that we headed for a laundrette so we could do a bit of washing.

After a very full day we managed to get back to the motel some time after 9pm.

We have quite a bit planned for tomorrow also so I hope to be able to post a lot of photos again.

Richard.
