The Farewell Tour

This was the last weekend of our subtropical island adventure so we made a list and revisited lots of our favorite bits...


The Bellstone


Full on percussion section



Rock Rose Ruin


For a little explore along an inviting path





Plantation and Jonathon







The view from the top of Jacob's ladder

 



The coffee shop for toasties and milkshakes


Castle Gardens




Bird on a fountain


Back to Jacobs Ladder


Little Man and Tall Girl wanted to climb it one last time with J


J couldn't resist trying out the Saint method of sliding down




Big Trouble and I cheated and drove to the top


Almost there


New wellies


The heart shaped waterfall


Halley's Mount


Weird ferny trees


The view back over Longwood to the Barn


It is going to be a tough few days saying all our last Good Byes.

See you back in Englandshire in a couple of weeks.

  5. What a lovely summary of your favourite St Helena things! Enjoy your last few days and your holiday in my beautiful home town, the fairest Cape, and safe travels back to Blighty. Looking forward to hearing all about your trip. xx

  7. Just caught up with you. Wow! Has it really come to an end? Seems like no time at all you were setting off. I can't begin to imagine your combined feelings at the moment, but hope overall it is positive and good for all of you. Lxx
