Lyme Regis and Beer

We got up fairly early and headed off to John's mom's house for breakfast. She prepared a delicious meal which we enjoyed before heading off on a driving tour of the south coast of England. This is what they refer to as the Jurassic Coast, as it has many sedimentary cliffs which are full of fossils. We drove to Lyme Regis where we walked along the boardwalk enjoying the sunshine and the beach. The beach was made of small pebbles. We wandered along the beach and over the breakwater before heading back. We stopped and had fish and chips for lunch at a kiosk on the boardwalk. From there we drove east along the coast stopping at a couple more small villages, including Beer, which is a fishing village.

We dropped his mom back at her home and continued back to John's. In the evening we walked to a local pub and had a couple of beers before heading off to bed.
