Herman's Coastal Tour

St. Ives was todays destination which is another pretty coastal town. It's full of pasty shops, art galleries, bakeries & sea gulls.

Afterwards, we took Herman on a tour of the north coastal road to St. Just. Amazing, twisty, narrow roads which I think I did on my motorbike many years ago. I was driving so there was no wetting of knickers at the sight of the 556 bus coming the other way. This road had some really nice views. You couldn't see much of the coast but the surrounding countryside was amazing.

We didn't stop in St. Just because we missed the car park but instead we went to Mousehole which is on the south coast near Penzance. This coastal town must have the narrowest streets in the world but it also has a bus service which has to do a 3-point turn when it arrives at the harbour.

The weather has been getting better. The wind isn't so strong, the sun has kindly appeared and we managed to have a BBQ.
