Kimmeridge to Durdle Dor 2010 October

Last Saturday Sean and I did a bit of exploring down Dorset way, it left a big impression on us and we vowed to return sometime soon.
Whilst we had tentatively hoped for a pause in the relentless waves of low pressure that had washed across the country in the preceding week, we were unprepared for the sight that greeted us as we crossed the border into Dorset.
We travelled through the lush countryside, following the winding lanes that twist their way through upland and downland. All the while the sun sparkled through overhanging trees before the glint of a shimmering sea announced our arrival at Kimmeridge." Wow, we've hit the jackpot here" we both thought, (well, at least I did).
With just the slightest of winds, the remnants of the weeks adverse weather were only detectable in the character of the sea as it sloshed haphazardly against the ledges and cliffs that are synonymous with this awe inspiring coastline.
Mupe Ledges.... I was thinking of a different name for them as we sprinted through before the next breaker came.

Yep... He's in there somewhere
Is that a buoy...?
Now you see him....
Now you don't.
Now you see him..... Okay - you get the picture.
