When I saw the prompt for this week I knew immediately some shots I wished to post.
You could argue that my first two pictures are not coastal views, but at least they are from a Yorkshire seaside town.

| Scarborough - Peasholm Glen |
At least there is writing on the postcard and , I believe Peasholm is a boating lake even if no boats are in sight.
 |
| Scarborough Pleasure Park |
There are boats galore here, and a water chute - the bank on the right has seats to view acts at the open air theatre opposite. It looks a lot different today I'm told.
Fowey on the south coast of Cornwall is one of my favourite places to visit.

| Fowey - viewed from across the Fowey Estuary |
And if you look across the estuary in the other direction this is what you see.

But I've had to go to Stavanger in Norway for a shot of a ship of any size.

| Royal Yacht Britannia - Stavanger 1980s |
The Queen and Prince Philip were on board. I was working at Rosenberg Verft at the time.
