I am now in the River Dart, on a mooring buoy up-river at a place called Dittisham, or as they say round here, Ditsum. A nice day today, calm seas with enough wind to make a difference but not enough to mess things up.
This is Start Point, the last of the major headlands on this trip. In today's conditions it was quite benign, but it can be fearsome, as Janet and I have found on occasion. But today was perfect.
And then I was in Dartmouth, passing the castle in this picture:
I came up the river just for tonight and will go back down to the town tomorrow. My buoy is just opposite the landing stage for Agatha Christie's old house.Greenway. There have been a few boatloads of tourists this afternoon, even though it's October.
The Dartmouth to Totnes cruise boat had a few late season trippers on too, making the most of the remarkable weather.
