Took in some of the north Cornish coast today – firstly Crackington Haven. It has the hottest day so far and you couldn’t stay in the sun too long.

This evening we were visited by the farm’s resident Chicken and Rooster. Visited Cotehele, a National Trust property near Plymouth. You have to choose a bright day as there is no lighting in the property. A lot of traveling yesterday so today I have kept it local with a visit to Mevagissey. I stayed here back in 2005 and this is my first visit since then. It’s still as pretty and unspoiled as ever. With the first week over it’s time to move on and say goodbye to the Lizard. Half way on the journey to the base for the second week, is the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Again, a place I have visited before but always worth a return visit and I still haven’t sen it all. The day after Zennor and I am feeling it in my legs – an easy day was called for. Headed out to Pendennis Castle – somewhere I have visited often, but always worth it. Since my last visit there have been a few changes. First they have introduced guided tours to parts of the military installations that were previously closed to the public. Second, they now fire one of the guns every day at noon. Oh boy! This was a tough one. a few years back I completed the walk between Zennor and St. Ives (and back). With the undulations of the Coastal path it was more like mountaineering than hiking. This time I look the westerly route from Zennor. |
