Sunday 3rd April 2016

After an early morning shower then thick fog the day turned out to be good, fair amount of sun and very mild.
Spent a most enjoyable morning at the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Last visited 14 years ago, with this style of jungle, garden, rainforest nothing much changes but always a delight to experience. The one addition however that was pretty scary was the construction of a rope bridge over the gorge. We both walked it but by jove not for the faint hearted.
Spent some time in the hide watching live pictures of a barn owl nesting, also interesting to see from the hide was a white dove, crow, pheasant and sparrows feeding together.
This afternoon with the weather so good took the short drive to Mevagissey. What a stunning afternoon, can't beat a well stocked English harbour on such a delightful day. Push ourselves a little by walking the coastal path for some way enjoying some fantastic harbour views from high up.
My poor arthritic foot is giving me grief now, not surprised.
Finished the day by a good meal and a couple of pints of Proper Job at the local pup in the village.
