Just before noon we
decided to go to St. Mawes
Had lunch there while
watching the St. Mawes to Falmouth Ferry
Found a nice big conch
shell that we have been searching for all week
Went to take a photo of
the town and got drenched by a sudden downpour but was lucky
enough to make it back to the car before the real hail came down
From there we went to
Falmouth and drove around town a couple of times trying to find a
nice sea view. Eventually was able to park near a local
beachfront.
Watched the big for a bit
Decided to go to Feock but
got distracted along the way when I spotted a castle on a hill.
We decided to go into the castle simply because I was able to
drive over a drawbridge. Glad that we did as we found a nice gift
shop there and I had a walk around the fairly recent castle that
was converted into a WWII defence post. I was amazed that I
found the site so awe inspiring as to me it made the war seam more
real.
After walking around the
castle grounds we continued on to Feock where I made a series of
wrong turns leading to dead end streets only to be followed very
closely to the ends of the roads so I couldn't turn around
comfortably.
We found our way down to a
nice beach on the Fal estuary only to find it was a privet beach.
From there we went looking
for a small magazine shop to see if we could find a copy of PFK
for a project Andy has in mind but wasn't very lucky and only
found a small corner shop. From there we went to Tesco's
to pick up a couple essential goods but unfortunately it was
around home time and the traffic was horrible so we decided to
come home
