Pilgrims Way Lindisfarne Island

If you look to the horizon above the water you see a line of poles. Known as Pilgrims Way for 1300 years, it crosses the mudflats when the tide is out. It is the path St Cuthbert took to cross the the Island of Lindisfarne. also known as Holy Island.

We crossed by car on the road that is completely underwater once the tide comes in. Going there is not to be taken lightly. Tides do not wait for man, therefore you must follow the tide times placed either side of the causeway.

I don't think a trip to the British Isles would be complete without seeing and being on Lindisfarne Island. It's history lays it's hand on you forever.

A haunting image. I guess the trick is to get there and back with getting marooned. V

I wouldn't want to walk that road at the wrong time. Colour of the clouds gives lovely balance.
