An attempt to remap Europe and claim back the lost territories of the North Sea
Mersea Island
We were in England for a short period in August, during which time it rained nearly every day. The temperature was lower than normal for the time of year, although I was assured by Alessandra that they had just had a heat wave.
Butjadingen
During one of the warmer weekends in early August, we took a day trip to the peninsula of Butjadingen, between the Jade and Weser estuaries. I’d been interested to go there for some time, as I was taken by the way it looks on maps, criss-crossed by thousands of small drainage canals.
