Despite the light drizzle and looming dark clouds, we decided that even though we had occassionally ventured on to the south west coastal path, today was the day to tackle a complete section. We walked from Mousehole to Lamorna Cove, a mere 7.5 miles or so round trip! The path was very wet and muddy in places and before we made it to Lamorna Cove the rain started falling in earnest. We were sad and sorry specimens by the time we made it home but the anticipation of another great dinner in 'our' local restaurant kept our spirits up!

The flowers you can see are in tiny private gardens perched above the coastline across the road from the houses to which they belong.

Lamorna Cove was pretty famous for smuggling. Note the many caves in the coast opposite.

At this stage we were foolishly thinking that we'd seen the last of the rain...not long after, it returned with a vengeance.
