Sunrise over St Ives
Every day a beautiful view from my roomThe walking makes me feel as if my cells have been oxygenated! The pace is often a bit quick, so breathing is deep. The terrain on some walks has been challenging – too steep and rocky for my taste on some walks. A few stony sections with a few streams running through are fine, but steep up and down rocks are too much for my muscles and balance. Fortunately, the last few days have seen more rolling, dirt paths. The views are always stunning – bright green grass and leaves, ever-present
gorse and
heather (yellow and pinky mauve), dark hedges, and the constant drama of big white clouds and dark rain-filled clouds. We have often walked along the
Southwest Coastal Path, marvelling at the pounding surf. This afternoon the deep power of the ocean was evident – the layers of turquoise and white pounding onto the beach at
Portreath.

Nice shots!
But watch that first (cliff) step! It's a doozy. As for the weather, I'm curious. Was rain likely when you were there? It looks wonderful on a bright, sunny (if not too hot) day. How far/long did you walk each day?
