Just had a week of glorious summer weather.
We were very lucky, back in March booked ourselves a self-catering rental, Tregurthy in Cornwall. First two years of my life was in Cornwall and it's been a while since my last visit there. Could not have asked for better weather, the only rain was over-night Tues-Wed. Every day was sunny and hot. The light is noticeably more intense in Cornwall compared with Scotland - that's why so many artists moved to St Ives in the nineteenth century.
Only one mile pleasant walk from the Eden Project where we spent two days. But did much else besides - Charlestown historic harbour, Wheal Martyn clay pit museum, underground tour at Geevor tin mine near Lands End, Marazion and St Michael's Mount, Lost gardens of Heligan, local walks around Trethurgy, the Treffry viaduct, estuary cruise on the Fowey, Cornish cream teas.
Travelled in Mrs' Mini - a long drive, at least to us Brits. But we even managed to avoid the predicted thundery downpours on the way home.
