Along the white cliffs, beautiful motifs with arches and isolated rocks. There are a lot of people here on the beaches. Near Margate, we first thought someone was standing in the water, but it's a statue. Short break in Margate, then back again.

Pull's Ferry is interesting. A passenger ferry operated here from the Middle Ages until the 1930s.
Visiting the cathedral is somehow always part of it 🤷
Strolled across the market and back again.

I think almost everyone knows the story of Robin Hood. Without this thought, Sherwood Forest is actually just a beautiful forest with ancient oak trees. The Major Oak lived for approx. 1000 years.
In the 1200s, commonly regarded as the time of Robin Hood, Sherwood covered about 100,000 hectares, which

The name Mam Tor means Mother Hill, because landslides on its eastern flank led to a multitude of "mini-hills". The landslides, caused by unstable shale layers, gave the hill its alternative name Shivering Mountain. In 1979, the fight to preserve the A625 road (Sheffield - Chapel en le Frith) on the

I came across a picture of the reservoir's overflow. I absolutely wanted to see it in real life.
It looks very interesting, but the reservoir is not full enough. When the water flows into the overflow, it will surely look even more interesting.
But just for a photo of the overflow..... no, we immediately

Interesting landscape with the rocks. The origin is due to weathering and/or created by a large river, but there are also druid theories. Anyway, it's fun to stroll through here. We enlarged the loop and also went through heath and moor, also beautiful. The heath is already starting to bloom in parts.
