I feel like a true tourist as John and Diane planned our day. We met with Nigel, Jane and Chris in Helford. Tim, John, Nigel and Chris went to primary school together. They have know each other for 60 years - amazing they are still in contact. A steep path took us to the beach then a coastal walk to get the tiny ferry across the river. On the other side we walked to Helston for lunch at The Holy Mackeral. I had the most amazing fish finger sandwich with picked vegetables. Back on our feet to Kestol Barton for an ice-cream and a wander around a charming garden. Tim and Nigel got their footpaths maps out leading us back to the quay. I painted the beginning of today's postcard sitting on a barnacle encrusted rock. Back on the tiny ferry and over the waters to The Shipwrights Arms. A soda and lime for me. Back onto the coastal path where we said farewell to Chris the sheep farmer.
This evening we ate the most fabulous vegan curry at Wilder. There is no choice. We were served dishes with eight different curries and sauces - just delicious. A walk through the streets of Falmouth town to The Greenbank Hotel where Nigel and Jane were staying for a last cointreau on ice - the coffee machine was off.
We walked and walked and walked 22,905 steps today.
