August 17, 2010 Touring Around

After a well-deserved lie-in, we awoke to persistent rain with a promise that it would improve later. We decided to find Pandora’s Inn, an old place on the Helford River. By now the rain had stopped and we had something to eat.

Left Pandora and caught the King Harry ferry (effectively a platform pulled by chains) across to the St Mawes peninsula. Visited the 12th century church at St Just in Roseland. Very picturesque.

Drove through St Mawes and then called into Pendower beach where Mum and Dad used to go. Ended up in Tolverne (for cream teas at the Smuggler’s Inn) before catching the ferry back to the Falmouth / Truro side of the river.
