Caves

On a warm bank holiday weekend, we hit the beach hard with The Simpsons. We paddled down a deep, dark cave off Pendennis Point. On saturday, we finished up with a roaring fire and BBQ on Fushing Beach. Sunday involved a walk from Point, past Trelissick and on to Roundwood Quay. Monday involved snorkelling and SUP, with a boat trip (with Matt and Jillie) acrosss to St Mawes for drinks and then fish from 'Harbour Lights' at Falmouth.

Cellar Beach

Arriving into this calm creek cul de sac for a BBQ on a warm night was wonderful. We walked a short distance to look down over The Heads, then made a fire and got the Kelly Kettle going. We motored back in the dark, sweeping the sea with a torch for buoys and other craft. A lovely way to end the day ahead of the impending rainy weekend.

On The Water

Hannah arrived in time for an evening boating trip to the Kings Head at Ruan Lanihorne with Matt and Gillie. We followed the estuary North and then turned East, away from Truro up the Fal river until we could go no further on the high spring tide. We travelled back in a leisurely fashion, drifting for a while on the falling tide and taking in the sunset colours to the West. A magical evening. 
On Saturday Simo and Adam commenced their Powerboat2 RYA course at Mylor. The girls walked the estuary, while Jerry and Matt went kayaking (video) looking for the kettle lid that we dropped in the water on Friday evening - and found it! On the way back, we invented another new sport:
