Welcome to the next instalment of my Isle of Wight Holiday Diary, where we are on to the second of our three weeks away ...
Day 8 - Saturday
We couldn't quite believe that we still had sunshine ... that was a full week of uninterrupted blue skies and warm temperatures. It was due to turn though and we were definitely making the most of it. Today we headed back to Ryde, one of our favourite places on the island.
We started off with our usual walk out on the pier ...
... where we headed straight for our favourite spot in the only Costa we ever frequent ... it was just a tad breezy out there, but we were determined to stick it out ...
I don't think I will ever tire of this view from the pier ...


Whilst neither of could face walking any further I was sure I could see some brightly coloured umbrellas on the headland in the distance and an idea started to form 😀
We headed back the way we'd come, passing the arc of brightly coloured beach huts ...
I noticed that Puckpool Park was not that very far away and, as it was somewhere I'd thought might be worth a look, we decided to head in that direction.
We parked up and had a bit of a wander and were quite surprised with what we found. In a lot of ways it was a bit like your normal everyday municipal park, but there was a bit of a difference ...
It's right on the coast and I wandered if, just maybe, it might be possible to wander through and find the umbrellas that I'd spotted from Appley Tower. Well the answer was a big, fat resounding yes and this was the view we had for a late lunch ...
Rather than retrace our steps through the park we decided to walk along the coast back to the car, which was a real treat, with more pretty beach huts ...
With aching legs it was time to head back to Bramble Cottage, with everything crossed that the weather forecasters had got it wrong and heavy rain was not on the way 😀
