Day Two: Mousehole to Marazion

Nice easy 7 mile flat stroll today, getting ready for much more demanding days ahead. Left Mousehole and followed Penzance bay round to Newlyn, still an important fishing port and then on to Penzance before reaching Marazion by 2pm. With spare time on my hands, I took the little ferry across to visit St. Michaels Mount. Amazing spot, with a 12th century church at the very top, and fabulous views in all directions, including across to the historic satellite earth station at Goonhilly. My route now turns southward, and stretches off into the distance, with the next four days taking me around the beautiful Lizard peninsula. Looking forward to an early night, and then up early to watch the rugby world cup - England vs the old enemy - with a full english at the Godolphin Arms. Swing low, sweet chariot!
