Avon Gorge

In searing heat, I decided to venture down to the other end of the Floating Harbour and stroll a little way up the Gorge. The sun was relentless, but rendered the view in stunning clarity, which I could only hope to capture on camera. It was fun to watch the gulls splashing about in the water, trying to stay cool. The chicks whistled endlessly while their mothers floated nearby ignoring them. Chav-Gulls.

I hope these images give some idea of how magnificent this place is. How many other cities can say they have a major geological structure like this next to it, with a Brunel structure added! Bristol rocks!
