Coasts, mainly Cornwall

For Pam.

From just off the South West Peninsula Coast Path near Porthcurno, Cornwall. Best enlarged, on black.

Treaga Hill, Southwest Peninsula Coastpath, Portreath.

The landward ramparts of this promontory iron age fort are now the seaward ramparts thanks to coastal erosion. 90% of the site has crumbled away. The ramparts are covered in heather and gorse in the summer. (It's possible I posted this before). For Pam.

For Pam. Looking across to St Agnes Head

Penberth Cove, Cornwall

For Pam.

Just possible to visit this isolated cove by car but far better to visit on foot on the South West peninsula Coast Path! And I should also say R.I.P. Rosamunde Pilcher (not that I knew her but I did know her son in Zennor). Best viewed large! For Pam.

From the South West Peninsula Coast Path near Bosigran looking northeast to Gurnards Head. Zennor, Cornwall.

Gurnard's head as seen from Carnelloe Cliffs, Zennor. For Pam.

Also for Pam. There was a strange, but not unpleasant, light at that time.

Looking across from the end of Tubby's Head to St Agnes Head, Cornwall.

Godrevy Island and Lighthouse, for Pam!

I got chatting to the two walkers seen at the bottom of the photo. They were walking the entire Cornwall section of the South West Peninsula Coast Path and had given themselves 6 weeks to do it with the odd week's rest here and there! They looked fit, seemed determined and were over half way round and at about half way in terms of their allotted time frame! I have no doubt they succeeded, and in time to get back to Stanford University where they were both studying for their MBAs. I told them that I had helped Spanish students with their MBA applications to Stanford, Yale, Duke and Harvard - which had to be in English of course. I was pleased to report that I had helped one candidate into Stanford, one to Duke and another to Yale! However the Harvard MBA programme candidate was never going to get on the programme (but I got my fee anyway!). OK, program (not programme) as these were all US MBA courses!

Porthmeor Farm, Zennor and its fields, as seen from Carn Galva. For Pam.

Porthcadjack, heather and gorse, for Pam.
