Heudh blydhen nowydh! (In Baden: n'guats New ").
for 2011 for the first time hello from Cornwall, we wish all readers a happy and healthy new year
We are well into the new year came Maybe you have.. already found the page with the pictures from New Year ... Christmas was very quiet and comfortable. On 24.12. we have a beach walk in Carbis Bay (still belongs to St. Ives), and there made some seals that were pretty close to the beach . can watch
On 1 Christmas Day we were able to take a walk in beautiful weather on the coastal path in Zennor .... On 2 Christmas Day we were in church (Anglican) and have a traditional reading, visits alternating with songs. The church choir was really good.
New Year we had to step in at short notice and work. New Year's Eve, it was like in high season ... the tea-shop was full ... 11-16 Clock ... with 6 operations, we are hardly fulfilled ... 1st January was a bit quiet ... In England, 27 and 28.12 and at 03:01:11 the way yet, "Bank Holidays" ... So really holidays ... but that's hardly notice anything. Even on 2 Christmas Day and on 1 January had many shops (including grocery stores) open ... only the banks and the post had to ... and public facilities ...
We are of course continue this exploration of the area. We were still 2 times on the south coast, in Gunwalloe and Mullion Cove on the north coast in St Agnes. Through the guide, we learned that in Gunwalloe the treasure hunters on the road ... there is some point down long ago, a ship that was carrying gold coins. It is probably not rare today, after a storm ... Gold coins are washed onto the beach ... let's see if we can find in the remaining 8 months, which ...
Mullion Cove is a small port in the only Access by road is narrow. Just above the port can get a great view of the "Mount's Bay towards Penzance enjoy. Here also is the Mullion Cove Hotel, by the "rich and famous" ... or those who think they are beautiful and rich ... ... Ascending
In St. Agnes (we were there before), we have made the area unsafe. There are also - I think we have never been told about it - ruins of old mine buildings. Cornwall was in the 19th Century, leading one for the mine technology. Many miners have emigrated and have the mines including the USA and Australia forward .... The last mine in Cornwall was in closed in 1990. Images can be found below ... Yes, and we are as this walked the coast path and, therefore, Christine suddenly exclaims "dolphins, dolphins are there" ... We could see the dorsal fins of 5 dolphins ... again and again and dive ... just beautiful!
During the week I was at Porthminster Beach here in St. Ives. It was very cloudy and it had been raining in the morning. At about 10 clock I was all alone on the beach ... I thought ... to even look at me out of the water - not even 20 meters - 2 eyes .. there was a seal ... not only one ... 6 pieces cavorting very close to the beach ... at the sight of it was completely no matter that it started to rain again ...
Today, on Sunday we were in Sennen-Cove, actually our local "hot chocolate" ... But the Beach Cafe had closed. So we had after our little hike to "Land's End" to our beloved "hot choclate with everything" without. On the way to Land's End (the westernmost point of England) we have discovered the wreck of the RMS Mülheim. The ship is in distress, in March 2003 and broken in October 2003 in two halves ... One is now in a bay ... The six sailors could then be saved to happiness.
If our report on the last three weeks ... We have always pleased when we hear some "good old Europe" ... until next weekend
Harald & Family
