St Anne; Friday, 13 August, 2004

After the shortest and possibly one of the most bizarre flights (The ground crew have to seat you as access to some of the seats is by pushing the set in front of you forwards and the flight only has a pilot, no other crew!) I landed at the portacabin that is Alderney International airport.

Alderney is a very small island, with very little in the way of transport, so the only way to get from the airport to the hotel is either by taxi or by foot. Seeing that the total walking time from the airport to the hotel was 8 minutes I decided to walk.

After checking in I wandered down into St Anne's - the Island capital and the only town on the island. From there it's a five minute walk down the hill to Bray, the harbour.

After spending a little time sitting relaxing on the beach I wandered back to the hotel and then out onto the cliff path for an hour or so before heading back into town for dinner, just as the sun was setting.
