200 Miles of Rain


We had been to South Dorset over the weekend to explore the beautiful Jurassic coast. Sudeshna and I had not been out for long time so another reason for this trip was to spend some time together. The places we managed to visit were Bridport, Charmouth, Lyme Regis and Durdle Door.

The tour started on Friday, 20th Oct morning. We reached Bridport after 5 long hours (thanks to traffic on A32), checked in hotel, had a quick change and went out to see Bridport. The landlady told us that Bridport has best seafood restaurant in South West and we definitely wanted to find out. As expected 'Riverside' turned out to be a really really good place.

Next day we went on our fossil collection tour. Sudeshna had a good luck in Lyme Regis and Charmouth - she found some good fossils. After exploring the Jurassic coast we drove to Durdle Door (Lulworth). On way our way back we stopped in Weymouth a lovely sea side city.

The blog says '200 Miles of Rain' because on our return journey it rained continously from Charmouth to Cambridge.
