Beautiful walk up to Nidri waterfalls - avocados ready to pick


A good time of year for wildflowers - a huge selection but this was most unusual - no idea what it is.


Dave and John


Oranges and lemons growing on the same tree?

Very picturesque walk up the valley from the main street in Nidri


Paddled and picked our way round this rock to get to the end.










Worth the hour's walk up to the waterfall at the end of the valley


 Back for tea and cakes on the balcony but too slow taking picture and the cakes have gone!


 Boat launching day - very clever tractor and trailer manoeuvring. They tow boats around the yard and then reverse the trailer into the water until the boat floats off - amazing!


Our turn next - standing on deck while they reverse the trailer under Serenity, remove the props and she's off




"It's OK" says John "there is a centimetre clearance here!" Skipper looks worried! If it gets too close they use the hydraulics on the supports to tip the boat a little to get past - a strange feeling when you are standing on deck!
