Holiday - Sailing

Hi my darlings, I hope you are enjoying your season. I personally am loving my summer and do. not. want. it. to. end.

Today we had a glorious fun pool day - I swear I regress about 60 years on days like this, back to the bliss of carefree summer days of childhood.
So as I lounge around, happy with my day, I'm giving myself an easy ride with today's post.  I'm letting the pics do the work as I share with you a relaxed evening sail around Plymouth, Devon. 

This classic sailing yacht is owned by a fella who'd just launched this gin brand which is distilled on the farm where we stayed (oh heaven, a vineyard and a gin distillery!).

The evening light was breathtakingly beautiful.

We enjoyed sundowners on board.  G&Ts all round. No surprise there!

The gin has a distinctive herby flavour and was so refreshing on this hot evening.  It's a winner.

We were talked through the herbs he and his wife had settled on and there were many.  Don't ask me to name any, other than the ubiquitous juniper - it was a long night!

Selfies just have to be taken on-board

I think it's the law.

I'd never seen Plymouth from this aspect before.  It's attractive and its shores are steeped in history.  If you're in Plymouth, this is a pleasant way to see a bit of the city's beauty.

A la perchoine.
