On Sunday, 7th June I headed west to Porthcurno. I had seen the beaches strung out along the coastline from The Minack Theatre a few years back but, wow, what a beautiful beach I found myself on.
I always seem to leave something behind. Today it was my bottle of water. Getting lovely and warm in the car rather than lovely and warm in my beach bag.
Before leaving I walked up to the top of the road leading to The Minack and took this, one of my favourite beach shots (so far). I was sunbathing on the left hand side of the first bay.
And because this is Cornwall and they do things their way, you have to pay 20p to use the toilets. They're nothing special and I have never been charged anywhere else. This is, of course, on top of the car-parking charges which you have to pay everywhere. So not only do you need pound coins but twenty pence pieces as well.
I finished off the afternoon with a quick trip into Sennen Cove. Cath and I had driven down and round and out during our tour of the west coast last week but I had a little look around this time, as well as an ice-cream, which I had to guard with my life to protect from marauding seagulls, and a look at the menu at Ben Tunniscliffe's new restaurant, which I rather fancy for breakfast one day, although an hour's drive for breakfast may be pushing it.
And a last look at Sennen Cove as I drove away.
