L'Horizon Hotel And Spa St. Brelade

... bit. The people are delightful, everyone being quite friendly and helpful. I must admit that sometimes I could not understand them because there is apparently a mixture of English/French/Jersey mix that is used and ordinary blokes on the street calling out to each other are totally incomprehensible to me. The view of the sea is just remarkable. This is one of those places where the boats are sitting on mud at low tide and up to 6-9' of water at high ...

found out yesterday that sky europe has ceased its operations. just great. that is one leg we had flying from Prague to Venice so now i'll have to find another way and i'm sure it won't be as cheap. well, if that's the only problem i run into for 4 months, eh?...

... terminal, all barefoot. his feet looked like they haven't seen shoes in quite a long time. I can barely walk through the house barefoot without stubbing a toe or stepping on something sharp. don't know how they do it.
Get to my hotel and it's lovely, again no A/C but don't think it will be needed here. My whole purpose in coming here was to walk and enjoy the seaviews. There is Castle Elizabeth that can be ...

We got on to the ferry to Saint Malo and Julz was feeling sea sick. Instead of sitting in our club class seats, she chose to spend an hour outside and then the rest of the journey in cattle class right at the back of the ferry!! Si was very supportive x

... cafes for a beer. We then walked back to the room and Sandy took
another nap before heading out for dinner. We walked across the
square to an Indonesian restaurant, the same one that Charlie and I
ate at 5-6 years ago and ordered the “rice table”, an order of
around 20 different dishes that they spread all over your table. A
great meal and the rice table is certainly a treat if you get to the
Netherlands. During the meal ...

... 2 months apart
albeit from different worlds. We shared many of the same likes;
travel, sport, fine food and a bit of drink, although not necessarily
in that order. He has spent over 30 years as a general practitioner
of medicine and has practiced in large urban settings and in very
remote environments and has many hilarious anecdotes of his practice
over the years. He writes a monthly column regarding these tales in
the Guernsey magazine and is a very popular doctor ...

... made our way down to Market Street and the Fish Market. Bought ourselves some Jersey fudge and chocolates and Jacqui got a new dress. Then we walked back and had dinner at the cafe below the Pomme d'Or Hotel. I had rump steak with melted cheese and avacodos...and I'm sad to say I was more impressed with the grilled veggies that came ...

Most of the way through the dinner, we met a couple who live on Guernsey, Phill and Carole. They shared stories, wine, liquor, and their house with us. We'll have to give them a call when we get back to Guernsey again...and I do owe them an apology for making a mess of the bathroom. They're heading out to Brazil soon, so we got to give them some pointers. Yeah, so it was a good night...even if it was only a few hours in Guernsey.

... The roads there were absolutely insane! The houses came literally right up on to the street. If there was no house there, there was a giant granite wall. It was soo scary. We would come around corners and not be able to see anything but another car/giant truck coming right for us!

St. Peter Port in Guernsey, Channel Islands was an interesting mix of British and French culture. Street names, architecture, and language are a blend of influences. We toured the main Anglican church and saw with marble statues and tombstones written in French. There was a small street market filled with handcrafted jewelry and pottery, and British pubs that promised to bar patrons who were too rowdy during football games.
