2014.05.18 Lymington - Keyheaven nature reserve

Because the 5 year old member of our occasional expedition along the Dorset Coastline shows typical for that age symptoms (are we there yet?), instead of driveing further west we switched to areas lying closer to home, which we skipped before.

Loop around Lymington - Keyheaven nature reserve did not leave too many photographic memories: that day the sky was aboltutely pure (blunt...), with strong sunlight causing terrible haze over the Isle of Wight. Not to say that there is nothing to see in the area: for one loving sails there is plenty to stare at, but most of all the place is full of birs - and birders, with their cannon-like lenses.

There is no beach at Keyheaven bay, although one can walk on the pebbels easily, ant there is pretty much no access to the see along the seawall, apart from small 'beach' at the pipe leading to Isle of Wight. The path is pretty wide, there are also more of them cuttting through the reserve and the next time we go there, it will be with cycling in mind.

We stooped for lunch at The Chequers Inn- delicious pork ribs!

For more information of the reserve see the leaflet
Our walk as kml file can be seen and downloaded here

If you arrive early at Lymington you can be lucky to find some space along the road, otherwise there is a big pay&display car park



Blue sky, gren grass...
 


Shape and colour abstractions appeared to be the main theme
