Looking back along the beautiful coastline to the Southerly Point
More Hummingbird Hawkmoths
And lots of Butterflies mainly Small Tortoiseshell
Met this lovely Australian Kelpie
I told Jim that having a large Mint/Choc Ice Cream after his Crab Sandwich would be too much !No lovely looking vessels out there today - just this car carrier California Highway
Arriving above the Lizard Lifeboat Station
We watched this family clambering up the 200 steps after visiting the station and I thought - No Way !But in the end we couldn't resist it - what a place ! and the superb Tamar Class Lifeboat Rose
We were a bit worried about what the dogs would think about going back up the 200 steps - in the event, off went Tilly at a heck of a rate with Jim hanging on behind and me not far off with Wooster - a faster ascent that we had intended - we'll see what knees and muscles are like in the morning !

The lovely Church Cove - The big house - The Cellars is evidently a holiday home now
Jim spent several happy holidays in the left hand cottage when he was a lad - such a stunning viewWe then walked back to Lizard Village for a refreshing cup of tea and yes, and Eton or Lemon Meringue Pie ! Not sure we walked enough !
When I drove into the drive the Valerian was covered in Small Tortoiseshell Butterflies
A proper sunset for a change
If you mean the house to the left in your picture, it's a holiday let - or at least part of it is: http://www.churchcove.co.uk/index.html
ReplyDeleteStill very much in use by the looks of things :-)
Just hadn't seen the main gates to the courtyard area closed before and weeds growing out of the wall - pleased it's still in use !
DeleteWhat a beautiful day and great walk you had, bet you slept really well last night. Wishing you our very Best Wishes for such a worthwhile walk next week. Thank you for all the wonderful photo's, now catching up on your past few weeks.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for the donation, Wooster & I will do our best to get there safely and in good time ! We were all OK this morning and the weather was good again so we've been to Porthgwarra - probably no more time to get out this week hope you are able to enjoy the fine weather - got to go to Truro tomorrow - still really missing The Old Vicarage !
