Lands End is the extreme westerly point of the mainland of England.
It is beyond beautiful....
Breathtaking it was...
we could have stayed the rest of the day.
This is called the Longships Lighthouse.
Close up of the Lighthouse
Me and the Lands End sign...
people have to pay around $12 dollars to have their picture taken...
we skipped that part ;-)
Magnificent...
Lands End became somewhat commercial when a rich guy bought the point
You see things like the picture below...easy to look past it though
and see the cliffs and ocean views.We looked past the commercialism...
We took this picture around 4 in the afternoon (tea time!!!)
The tide was in, so you take a boat to shore after visiting the Mount
we skipped that part ;-)

These waters are called the "Boiling Seas" at Lands End
After we left Lands End we traveled on to Marazion where
St Michael's Mount is located out on an rock island
This is the only shot of Dick and me together on the whole trip
we were standing in front of St Michael's Mount
a really nice English couple we met took this shot for us....
they didn't want their photo taken together...shy I believe.

Dick and I took dozens of photographs of houses and gardens...
we especially liked this pink patio above
We loved this oddly shaped ice cream parlor
Ice Cream in Cornwall was to die for, btw
Dick was waiting for his barbecue rib dinner
at the hotel restaurant above
The Marazion Hotel
I had the fish and chips
Fish and chips were different at every place we ate
and always served with peas, plain, mashed or mashed and minted.
Off to the next town!!

Okay, blogger is giving me problems today. Tried to post already and it didn't go. So hope it does this time.
I can't believe you're in England. How fantastic. Your pictures are fabulous. You and your dear hubby look like you're having a wonderful time. So happy for you, Maree.
