Romney Marsh

An amazing place I visited by bike a few weeks back.

It's on the south coast of England, and has been reclaimed from the sea over many years.

Rather like Holland it's very flat, and full of dykes and dams.

It's very peaceful - I kept seeing happy looking people in idyllic houses.

It's also very easy to cycle on, because of the flatness.

Once you get to the coast itself, it's less peaceful - with typical English seaside resorts.

Here's a photo looking over fields full of oil-seed rape:
