Walk to Lands End
While the others were surfing we took Basil for a walk to Lands End. It's a coastal path with great views all the way and a few interesting ruins and wrecks to explore. Of course, we had a picnic en-route. Lands End itself isn't a place I'd choose to stop, but it's great being able to see the Scilly Isles. . Basil, always hopeful for a bit of picnic. . A little relax on the way back.
