BSCC Penzance artist residence

Wed. Rain forecasted. Only forecasted. Rained late in day after whole day of wearing sticky rain pants.

Train to Penzance, another base stop for walks in both directions. Mousehole and a bit further west. Marazion to the east.

The coast has changed character and geology. Trees are more prevalent, but surprisingly, leaves are starting to turn on very few trees.

Boulders on the sea which is now part of the English channel. Less wind, warmer, big boulders instead of sandy beaches. Somewhat like the difference between road biking and mountain biking. The coast path, at times, becomes the technical mountain biking equivalent.

After some point on the way to Lamorna the boulders became, for us, impassible. Hips do not raise high enough to step over the large ones, so we bailed.

Returned the way we came, in the rain, watching wonderful waves beat the Penzance shore. A good days walk.

Beer: Skinner's Cornish Knockers ale, light. 3.2 Boogs
