Monday

7.30am and the road crew were already arriving. Our visitors decided that since they had a long journey ahead of them they would leave early rather than risk being held up on the lane!

Lots of grey and a little brightness

With a strong Easterly wind the sea was looking very different

The big stuff arriving

Gouging up the old tarmac

Weather was much the same this afternoon. Bitterly cold Easterly wind and grey sky

Jim's photos Saturday and Sunday !

 Saturday!

Glorious morning

Super big beach appearing

Craig & Mia set off for Gunwallo which is one of their favourite places

"Did someone say Beach!"

We met the lovely Great Dane Luna near The Cabin

She's from Marazion

Sand was nice and  firm to walk on

Maisie checking out the rocks

Down at the Western end of the beach the seaweed from the recent storms had piled up

Happy girl! she enjoyed her trip to the beach

Such an emotional day for the many hundreds of us who have travelled on her - 35 years for us ! Here she is just setting off on her last ever passenger trip to Scilly

Lovely to see Tegen

After the field Craig & Mia walked though Marazion and onwards to Long Rock

Passing Mousehole

Sunday afternoon walk with cloud already approaching

First time we managed a photo of the Church with the Remembrance Day flag as the wind has been blowing the flag out of our sight

Just a snatched shot of Scillonian III passing Mousehole with both the Penlee Lifeboats escorting her into Penzance on this her last trip!

Saturday's Photos

 

Scillonian III heading out on Saturday - only one more trip

It was such a glorious day so we abandoned all the gardening jobs that needed doing and walked down to the beach

Massive beach

Looking back to Perranuthnoe

Hopefully the last photo of the Cedar Tree - it looks OK from this side, but not from the house after Storm Goretti

The remnants of Jim's bonfire

SCIII returning as the sun was finding a small gap in the clouds

Still very calm

Lovely end to the day
