Weymouth (Thomas Hardy's 'Budmouth')


The first two pictures here from Weymouth, of a King's 'bathing-house' and a King George statue, made me recollect reading Thomas Hardy's 'The Trumpet Major' many years ago:


Found myself initially moving away from the seafront in search of something good to eat.

As I was heading for the Isle of Portland, I gravitated towards Weymouth Marina/Harbour rather than the Esplanade:



Found Weymouth Marina/Harbour surprisingly beautiful:





Still can't work out why I went walking towards the Isle of Portland when I could've just caught a bus there.  Guess I felt I just needed the exercise.
