Hello from the Penwith peninsula ...
blue sky and a great full moon have during the week 3 times driven to the beaches of St. Ives ... Right before sunset we were off ... the boys have dug in the sand on the beach ... We have looked at the sunset. Since the full color range was shown. White clouds of light and dark blue sky to deep red ... awsome.
On Saturday we went to the mines of Botallack ... because we always wanted to go there. These are spectacular on the coast. To get the lower pump house a small climbing situation is necessary - but rewarding!
Sunday we were in the "Eden - Project" ... the flagship project of Cornwall's tourism industry. If known, there were 200 million pounds, or € (is on the sum actually matter) invested. Some may know the "biome" from the James Bond film "Die Another Day" which was filmed here in part.
The biomes are plants from all over the world. Tropical rain forest and Mediterranean plants are shown. Overall, the Eden - Project to point to climate change and possible ways to prevent climate change ... There are projects in the 3rd World supported. Since opening in 2001 almost 13 million visitors were there .... even the Queen ... the building opened in 2006 ...
Those were our highlights in weeks 3 and 2011 ...
Regards Harry & Family
