An excellent trip to the Channel Islands that started with horrible weather but soon cheered up to glorious sunshine.

Right: Daphers takes control of Fizzgig.




Lucrece passes a Cardinal marking the Shingles on the way to Cherbourg in initial heavy weather.













Eamon on board Summer Song attempts to keep the sun off his face with an amusingly floppy hat.












Eliona in the still and clear waters of Beaucette.



















John P retaliates with a silly hat of his own in order to offset the cool Johnny Depp sunglasses


















Eliona races past on route to St Peter Port















John contemplates the meaning of life in what would have been a spectacular sunset had I been using colour film!










Alan, Mark and Louise arrive in St Peter Port
