Woke up, it was a Guernsey morning...

This just in from Jane Mosse—who informs me that she is by no means a Guernseyperson, or even a Guern, but a foreigner from England—three photographs of Ebenezer Le Page's haunts. I hope Jane will excuse my quoting her below.

[The photographs] are all of Bordeaux harbour, known to Ebby as Birdo. There is one of Lihou island which is where Ebenezer and Jim spent the night. Lihou faces some dangerous tides and is cut off by the causeway so visitors do need to check the times before walking over!
