The weather forecast last night was for rain but this morning it said sunshine. I’ll take today’s forecast thank you. Jeff, Gerry, Ann and I rushed around and managed to just catch the 10:30 ferry (we are on holiday) to Herm. We could have gone in one of our own boats but:
A) The tides are massive (10M) and somebody would have had to have stayed on board to move the boat as the tide went out.
B) There are many rocks in the water just below the surface and you need to take great care when moving between islands.
We arrived at the very small picturesque harbour and decided to walk around the island. It can be done in two hours but we took a leisurely five hours, including a stop for lunch. The beaches were clean and uncrowded. The sea was crystal clear. It was a delightful way to spend the day before catching the ferry back to Guernsey.
