My round trip August 2011-part 4-A glimpse of Cornwall

As I said in the previous post I did get to have a look around part of Cornwall albeit a short one.
The first few pictures were taken in the quaint village of Blisland and the remainder in the popular coastal village of Mevagissey.

Blisland

In the church in Blisland is this picture of Jesus Christ.

His eyes can be open or closed.....

....the pub

On to Mevagissey and it rained.Lot's of people around

Am I putting on weight again ?

It's a beautiful spot,but just oh so many people.

The rain stopped and we got a walk along the coast

Chapel Point

Chapel Point is an isolated rocky spit of land reaching out into the Atlantic - a spectacular setting for a small group of houses. 

Made from stone dug from the Point itself, they were built between 1933 and 1938 by John A Campbell. Chapel Point featured in Daphne Du Maurier's novel, The House on the Strand. It is also on the South West Coast Path and offers walkers far-reaching views of long cliffs broken only by golden sandy beaches.

I must be getting used to the isolation of South West Scotland,I'm much more comfortable out here walking where there's less people.

On the way back

I try something different

I'll quote my youngest daughter here "Extreme Gardening"

After enjoying Cornwall I'm heading back to Cheltenham.See you on the next post.
