A wonderful bicycle ride around Guernsey. Beautiful scenery, narrow roads, very pastoral with occasional bunkers.

Our guides were great and it was very nice to be out in the air riding bikes and not in a tour bus sitting. I carried my big camera slung on my side/back. It was a bit of a nuisance, but the pictures were worth the hassle.

We stopped at a little tea house and grabbed a snack, a very tasty slice of apple pie in my case.

A view from our first stop. A beautiful view on a beautiful day.

This house on an isolated spit was across from on of our stops.

Our group and guides at one of the stops.

Both of our guides at another stop along the way.

I’m not sure why there was a Russian mine sitting in field.

Here’s the tea house where we stopped for a snack.

Rocks and sea with seagull.

This is a German tower from WWII built on top of an older tower.

The side of an old burial vault.

Private house with a German tower behind it.

Broad sweep.

…in a very photogenic field

Not sure what that is, but it is clearly falling down.

Protecting your fields from land ships.

The roads are amazingly narrow.

A tall tower in the distance from the far side of the island.

Looks like a fisherman, heading out for the afternoon.

A curious fortification by the tea shop where we stopped for a snack.

The 4PM return time meant crowded lighters.

Getting off back at the Magic.
