Beach Day

The first day of sunshine during our holiday in Cornwall, and we headed to the beach!

Land's End

Land's End is the extreme westerly point on the mainland of England. In the distance, you can also see Longships and the Longships lighthouse, which  is the name given to a group of rocky islets situated approximately 1¹⁄₄ miles (2 km) west of Land's End. 

 

As you might have noticed from the previous photographs, the weather wasn't the greatest during our holiday...

Mousehole

I've decided to stick to one theme every month, so this month shall be dedicated to Cornwall, where we holidayed this summer. This picture was taken in a lovely little fishing village called Mousehole.

Le Mont Saint-Michel

In 2009 we visited Le Mont Saint-Michel in France, the counterpart of Michael's Mount in Cornwall, and off the two, it's much grander!

St Michael's Mount

St Michael's Mount (Cornish: Karrek Loos y'n Koos meaning "grey rock in the woods") is a tidal island located 366 m (400 yd) off the Mount's Bay coast of Cornwall, United Kingdom. It is a civil parish and is united with the town of Marazion by a man-made causeway of granite setts, passable between mid-tide and low water.

Thatched Cottage

A lovely thatched cottage in Cornwall.

Yesterday we visited a friend and enjoyed the lovely Indian summer morning in her garden. Today the temperature is expected to go as high as 29 degrees of Celsius, that's somewhere around 84.2 Fahrenheit!
