Bridport (cont.)

Still resting up another day. I will take a Sunday train all the way to Penzance, about 180 miles, arriving 4:15 and just leaving the last 15 miles to bike to Lands End -- much better than risking the heavy weekend traffic in this charming area enjoying glorious sunny weather. And I'm having a wonderful time with Lee, enjoying the best bitters and good food here in Dorset, and finally seemed to have caught up on sleep last night.
Yesterday we went to the coast, the Anchor Inn at Seatown on the Jurassic coast, a World Heritage Site due to the fossils found in the cliffs. Mary Anning discovered many dinosaur fossils here beginning in 1814 with no formal education of course, and has been called the greatest geologist who ever lived.
