A fairly ordinary day, again with a couple of heavy showers to remind Neil how lucky he was to have left behind the foul weather of a few days ago.  He walked via Narehead to Pace, where he caught the ‘ferry’ to St Mawes.  The ferry was effectively three people in a rubber dinghy…

Once off this bijou ferryette he got straight into the new ferry at St Mawes, which was ready and waiting to take him across to Falmouth – great timing for once.  He bought his lunchtime pasty in Falmouth and then walked to Swanpool.  Here at long last he was able to get into his sea-kayak and he paddled the last couple of miles to Maenporth.
