St. Michael's Mount

The weather has been so much better today. The sun was out for most of the day and no wind. In other words a great day to visit St. Michael's Mount which is right on our doorstep.

The tide was out so we were able to walk to the island via the causeway. The island has a small community of cottages, a chapel, gardens, a harbour, restaurants and a castle. A family still live in the castle but you can still visit it and go inside.

By the time we wanted to leave the tide had come back in and we had to take a short ride on one of the ferries to take us back to shore.

This is when we spotted a seal just bobbing along not 20 metres from where we were standing.

Returning back to the campsite we had another BBQ and Zoe volunteered to wash Herman. And a pretty good job she did too even though it took her 14 buckets of water!
