Clovelly - North Devon, England

That summer I left my footsteps

in this tiny English fishing village,
an idyllic and secluded settlement
that has been built into a cleft in a 400' high cliff
at North Devon, England.

could be this translucent turquoise blue;
it reminded me of Bahamas.

This quaint village has one main high street
which is cobbled and winds steeply down
to the small fishing harbor.
On either side of the high street,
traditional whitewashed cottages are festooned
with fuchsias and geraniums.
In the old days,
donkeys were used to carry goods up the hill;
sledges bring things down.
