Thanks Jill, these sunny days make perfect opportunities for photography. One or two of those earlier this year look a little gloomy now by comparison.
Ah that’s the home of David Kirsch, one of our rich benefactors – he gives £100 to every pensioner in the Island each Christmas. Pleased you enjoyed this little trip.
Lovely tour again. You’re as good as the tourist board – or perhaps you ARE the tourist board. I’m putting Jersey on my list of places to visit. Now, would you recommend boat or plane and how about a series on places to stay/eat?
Ah thank you Jenny. It’s the locals that often don’t appreciate the beauty of their own home island – few come to visit and leave disappointed. As you can see from the last slide there’s no need even to bring your own bucket and spade 🙂
Hi Roy, loved this trip. The dolmen caught my eye as I didn’t see it in all the times I was in Jersey and by coincidence was out dolmen-hunting around Tramore over the weekend.

Pretty as always. Image #21 looks like a mini Stonehenge. 🙂

We have a few of them around the place Carrie, those that weren’t robbed for building materials in earlier years 😦

Really Pam? That’s great. We’re quite proud here that one of the United States is named after our little rock in the sea 🙂

Hello Jean, yes we have a few dolmens knocking around Jersey – no carved or ogham stones of Celtic origin though as far as I’m aware.
