The sun was shining and today we really enjoyed getting out of the house for our daily walk. It took us through Phillack Church graveyard and over the Mexico Towans to the sand dune we have affectionately called "Our Happy Place". The following image doesn't really do the view justice. To the west from Carbis Bay to St Ives the sun reflected off the white buildings against the hilly backdrop. To the east Godrevy Lighthouse stands proud off the headland at Gwithian. In between the blue sea, which was calm today, complements the golden beach and tall Mexican grass on the Towans. The word Idyllic really does capture the view, even if this picture doesn't.
After a rest at "Our Happy Place" we made our way through the Haven campsite to the South West Path and on to the North Quay and back home via the King George V Memorial Walk. Sadly the view of the North Quay development is depressing. It currently looks like what it is - a building site. Worse still is that as the developer has gone bankrupt it's going to look like this for a while.
Thankfully with Spring around the corner, or we hope it is, the walk along the Memorial Walk was a little more pleasant than usual. The warmth of the sun sparked the yellow petal daffodils into life adding a little more colour to our day.
