Guernsey is an island in the English Channel off the coast of Normandy. It is famous for it's Guernsey Cows. People are friendly. Walking through town and around the outer limits of Guernsey was most enjoyable. Would love to return to this most beautiful island.

I have been to St Peter Port many times but never seen these parts before. It was an interesting hour and a half. Bear in mind there are quite a few steps but you can take them slowly.…
