365 Project – Day 312

Cornish Steps. As I’ve been traveling all day I’ve not had any photo opportunities so here’s one I prepared earlier. Around the area of West Penwith where we were in Cornwall there are lots of old dry stone walls which tend to be very thick and overgrown. Where necessary they have these steps up them…

365 Project – Day 310

Chain – again. Because of a lack of WiFi during the week I have been preparing my blogs as drafts and uploading them as and when I could. Now I’m home I have uploaded everything but, somehow, Day 310 completely disappeared. I know that it was this picture which I had taken in a Newlyn…

365 Project – Day 311

Cape Cornwall. Our last day of holiday in Cornwall and the weather forecast was awful so imagine our surprise and delight when the sun shone. We have decided that Cape Cornwall is quite our favourite spot, so that’s where we headed. From the car park we crossed the field and climbed up to the day…

Cornwall – 7 November 2014

I was walking back from the paper shop this morning and realised that I hadn’t taken a picture of the cottage we’re staying in, so here it is. Not the whole thing mind you, just the bit to the right of the doorway with the open upstairs window. It’s two up and two down but…

Cornwall – 6 November 2014

Today’s been frightful. It started to rain while Maude and I were getting the paper this morning, by the time we’d finished breakfast it was horrid and we could only just see across the harbour. Leaving Maude warm and cozy in the cottage we headed through the gloom to Porthleven to visit a gallery where…

Cornwall – 5 November 2014

As it started to rain straight after breakfast we took a little time to read the paper and have a coffee, then the sun came out so we set off to Sennen Cove for a good walk on the sand. We were blessed with some glorious weather which so made the most of it. The…

Cornwall – 4 November 2014

Today has been an improvement as I have only been rained on once. So far. We had already decided that we would go to St Ives today and managed to find a car park that offered a good view across the roofs towards the harbour and a short walk down the hill through the town…

Cornwall – 3 November 2014

This morning I asked the newsagent what the weather would be like today, “Changeable” he replied. It got rained on for the first time walking back to the cottage, I then got soaked in Porthleven before getting a shower in Zennor and rained on in Penzance; this is what holidays in Cornwall are like in…

Cornwall – 2 November 2014

We were a little weary today, a mixture of travel and a strange bed I think; so we’ve just been around Newlyn today in the sunshine or dodging the showers. Newlyn is still a working port with a fishing fleet and a big fish wholesale market. In the picture you can also see the Penlee…
