Four ways of moving, written up one stop at a time.
Route 01By road2 stops
Stops seen from a seat that keeps moving: bends, rises and the fields that slide past on either side.
First stop
The bend
A paved road curves between green hills, and for the length of the curve the whole view turns slowly past the windscreen.
Route 02By water2 stops
Crossings where the ground gives way to a boat, and the view changes more slowly than you expect.
First stop
Mid-lake
Halfway across a calm mountain lake, in a small boat with blue seats and red flags, the shore stopped being the point.
Route 03By rail2 stops
Notes from the carriage: what the window shows of the land outside, and what it reflects back.
First stop
Second carriage
From the second carriage the fields came past in bands, an orange marker flicked by, and the window kept a faint copy of everything inside.
Route 04On foot2 stops
Walks written up where I stopped: the end of a bridge, the top of a ridge, the last few steps.
First stop
Bridge end
A narrow suspension footbridge crosses the valley beside a fenced lookout. The stop is the point where the path hands over to the bridge.
