Another Atlantic Ocean...

[Ben]

Inspired by Bolboreta's photos (http://www.notesfromspain.com/forums/showthread.php?t=537) of her Atlantic ocean, here is the corner of the Atlantic that I miss most when in Spain. There isn't much of the UK I miss, but regular trips to North Cornwall was one of the hardest things to leave behind. I was there again last weekend, one of the wildest places on earth:

Awesome pictures ;D

That's a very nice area too. The coast reminds me of nothern parts of Galicia, but the forests are definitely different (And I like those pics very much!). I went to Cornwall just once, several years ago, but I don't remember much of our trip there (I stayed a month in Plymouth), maybe I should go back at some point...

Great photos, Ben. Especially the black-and-white one with the fern in it.

Wow, Bolboreta was right... It's amazing how much it looks like northern Galicia. Take a look:

The pictures are not mine (I hope nobody gets upset...)

It's true! I've never been to that part of Northern Galicia before, but it's definitely on my list now! Shame it's soooo far from Madrid...

Ben you might not remember that we went to the Nort coast of Lugo 3 summers ago, when we stayed with Isabel and Belen in the Mill and we went to Mondoñedo. :D

[Ben]

I do, but the coast we saw looked nothing like that!

[Marina]

Not the coast but the woods did!

[Ben]

True, the woods were stunning around Mondoñedo.

Hello Ben,

Beautiful images! They remind my of Northern California.

Thanks! It seems there is similar bit of wild ocean scenery all over the world!
