A brief moment in Totnes

 At the start of our holidays, we were going to spend a week in Cornwall with CBC's side of our family but we decided to leave a day early to break the journey.  We spent the night in Paignton in a B&B and then spent the morning in Totnes, a place we had spent a lovely week in about 8 years ago.

We spent the morning browsing the shops which include a great range of independent business.

There are so many little details and things to look for in Totnes.

I noticed this adorable frog above this doorway:

There are so many lovely paths with houses and plants, everything was in bloom.

Another hidden detail- the penguins looking down on the world.

Totnes is a transition town, trying to become more eco-friendly and I think these sculptures are eco symbols.

We went to the Climate Hub which has a range of activities and on that day, you could play a game called Green Wheel which is a great game which encourages talk about green issues and gives you a chance to think about things you could change on a personal, local or larger scale.  It was so lovely to join in for an hour with the lovely local people.

It's a wonderful place to go on a short holiday, especially if you are interested in eco-issues.

We spent a short while there and CBC and I ended up buying 2 vintage cardigans in the market- we've agreed to share one of them.

After a while, it was time to leave and we made our way to Cornwall, for our week in Newquay.

We took these photos at some point but I'm not sure where!
