Our transport awaits - Lundy Island
At the end of my week long holiday on Lundy the Oldenburg waits in the bay to return us all to Bideford SS 4526. The outward journey was made by helicopter from Lake SS 4228 as the sea was too rough for a boat crossing. Since my visit a jetty has been built and you no longer have to be ferried out by dinghy. Apart from Monday lunchtime to Wednesday night when a sea fog reduced visibility to less than ten yards the weather was dry and sunny. I enjoyed my time in Old Light Cottage and can certainly recommend the island as a holiday venue. Time photo taken not available.
