St Peter Port and Sark

The weather gods were with us today finally! We had a quick look around St Peter Port, the capital of Guernsey this morning before toddling off to Sark for the day. This is a typical street in the town which is built on the side of a hill.

The town church where some of Peter's relatives were hatched, matched and dispatched! In the CI most surnames are usually connected with one particular island but no, not the Herivels who have managed to infest the three main Islands. 😄

We also had to stop off and replace my trusty joggers which had fallen apart on Alderney!

Then we caught the ferry to the Isle of Sark which took about 3/4 hour. There are a lot of rocky outcrops and a couple of larger islands between Guernsey and Sark. This is a view of SPP as we were leaving. Note the bright blue sky!

One of the rocks on the way to Sark....

Once we got to Sark, we caught the tractor up from the harbour to the village on top of the island. 

We then walked down to La Coupee, which is the causeway connecting Sark to little Sark. From the causeway you can see Guernsey on one side and Jersey on the other.

 Note the horse dung from the horse carts ( there are no cars on Sark so tractor, bicycle  or horse cart are the only forms of transport....)

The town church where unusually no Herivels are known to have crossed the door....

We loved Sark which is so different from the other islands and I finish with the comment - look blue sky😄
