St Anne; Saturday, 14 August, 2004

After an early start I wandered back out to the cliff path and walked to the Wildlife bunker. Utilising an old German fortification the Alderney Wildlife Society has put together an exhibition on the unique flora and fauna of the island (including the unique blonde hedgehog!)

I then spent a couple of hours just gently meandering around the cliff path round the outside of the airfield which occupies a large part of the western end of the island.

At 2pm I caught the guided bus tour which went round to some of the most impressive parts of the island. The tour is conducted by the driver who gives an informative and well presented history and guide to the island (even if he is Jerseyman!)

After the bus tour I hired a bike for the rest of the afternoon and revisited many of the sights that were pointed out on the bus tour.

By about 8pm the light was fading and I was knackered so I parked the bike back at the guesthouse and went for dinner.
