Can you tell what it is yet
My Sunday afternoon fun.....
Can you tell what it is yet?
Cheshire countryside, Runcorn, Daresbury
Some shots I took whilst on an afternoons walk last week, late autumn, early winter, 2011.
They were taken on my ordinary HTC DESIRE HD mobile phone, at 3megapixel resolution !
Hope you like them.

As it turned out, this was a great little place with friendly bar staff, reasonably priced drinks which were suitable stronger than expected, and huge portions of Mexican food.

Today was my beautiful wife's birthday.
To celebrate this special day, we continued to wander around the Old Town, and take in the sights.
We initially tried to dine at "A Forja" (known locally as the Blue Door) but the we arrived quite late in the evening and the queues here were quite long (it's reputation proceeded it) so we wandered around, and stopped off for a quick drink in the "Green Room".

One of Lisa's recommendations especially since we were self catering was a visit to the weekly farmers market down opposite the marine, housed in a couple of buildings in the bus stations area.
On our walk down, we past an interesting opening in the city wall.
"Can you guess where we are?"
Lagos
I think this is near the main town hall?
This is the little "harbour ferry" that takes tourists across this small stretch of water to the beach on the other side.

Another farmer waiting for customers.
After the market, we wandered back across the street, to the harbour for some food.
There were lots of sales pitches where you could go for the local boat trips around the local area to visit the grottos.
After a busy first day, we relaxed back at the apartment.

Friday 5th August 2011
Our first full day in Lagos, and we didn't really know where to go.
What we usually try to do on the first day, is walk around, and pick up a few free local maps to see what is the "touristy" suggestions for places to eat, and see. We had a walk around the old town to familiarise ourselves with the location, and found the marina which is only 5 minutes from the apartments.
If anyone can comment on who this statue is, that would be great !
