11:51:05 Quite a nice church spire here. | 11:52:18 Chie in the Pantiles. | 12:02:48 ...and again. |

12:12:44 Here's the Chalybeate Spring. | 12:14:13 The dipper pouring out a glass of the spring water for us. | 12:16:06 Chie taking a sip with some trepidation. |

|
12:17:37 There are actually two outlets side by side - one with the dipper, and this one which you can just help yourself to. | 12:17:51 A picture of the spring - you can see it is pretty irony. | 12:23:18 An intriguing sign hidden down an alleyway. |

12:46:59 In the cafe where we had lunch, a dog peeking through the gaps in a spiral staircase. | 12:51:45 Chie with her lunch. | 13:19:37 The Spa Valley Railway. Chie with one of the locomotives. |

13:22:46 The cafe at the station - rather charmingly a parked buffet car. | 13:24:55 Chie about to board the train. | 13:28:38 Just about to set off now. |

13:39:54 Chie enjoys the view. | 13:48:02 Nice Weald countryside to be seen. | 13:52:10 ...and here we are at Groombridge, where, for now, the train turns around before heading back. |

13:53:35 Chie on the platform at Groombridge. | 13:56:54 A nice cup of tea on the platform at Groombridge. | 13:59:05 There's the engine coming back round now. |

|
14:27:10 I believe this is probably called a vestibule. | 14:29:16 One stop along and a compartment became free. | 14:29:31 A bit hard to take a picture which gets it all in! |
