Sunday 24th May 2009 Dear All,
Arrived in Cornwall on Saturday evening. It was quite warm on the drive down and we stopped off at Tyntesfield just outside Bristol then got stuck in traffic on the M5! Our cottage for the week seems to be just what we need including a balcony with lovely views across the Cornish countryside.
Today was very sunny and we decided to take advantage of the fine weather and went to the Lost gardens of Heligan. The jungle and Lost Valley were at their best and we strolled around the formal gardens, walled gardens and various shed, huts, greenhouses and arbours. We then called in at Fowey and nearly went on a boat ride but missed the last sail of the day!
More postcard to follow.
Wish you were here.
Love
Lyn and Hubby

Fowey is my favourite place. Sounds like you have had a lovely holiday. Bag is nearing the felting stage!!
ReplyDeleteI am going to enjoy reading your postcards from Cornwall. It reminds me of the summer after our first year at art college, when you sent me lots of postcards with a different letter painted on that I had to re- arrange into a saying - and I still didn't get it right in the end so you had to literally spell it out for me! Your trip & sounds looks glorious so far! x
ReplyDeleteLooking foward to the postcard updates!x The Lost Gardens of Heligan look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI love your picture. Cornwall - whichever part - is just gorgeous.xxx
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! to recieve a postcard from you in Cornwall! I love the grassy troll :o)
ReplyDeleteYour flowers and leaves in your previous post are pretty, a lovely variety of shapes and colour, you've really taken off with the crocheting. Have you got your hooks and/or needles with you in Cornwall? I must say you chose perfect weather for your break.
