Keith, Speedy & Justin headed off surfing again this morning. Rachel and I decided not to go along this time. I spent the morning relaxing at home. It turned out to be a beautiful, sunny and warm day. Just after lunch I was tired of being in the house and in an odd mood so I jumped in the car and went to the Lizard. I drove down to Lizard Point just taking my good 'ole time. On the way back I decided to check out another Church Cove I say signs for. Not sure why there are two Church Coves on the same peninsula (one is on the West side and this one I found today is on the East side).
I drove through a really neat little neighborhood in the village called Lizard where I found a car park close to the Cove. I wasn't sure which way to walk so I followed signs for the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institute) Lifeboat Station. It was maybe a 1/4 mile walk and it was beautiful. I realized quickly I was walking in the opposite direction of the cove, but that was okay because I got the panoramic views of it instead. The station is located on a hill overlooking the ocean surrounded by the usual rugged coastline.
I walked for a bit, and spent some time just sitting on the benches along the way taking in the scenery. It was so peaceful the only sounds I could hear were the birds, insects buzzing around, a slight ripple from the waves below, and even the grass moving in the light breeze. It was fantastic. Just what my mind and body needed today...a complete getaway for a short break. At a few points it felt a little eerie, like I was the only person in the world.
Once I finished touring this area I walked back towards the car and visited a small church and graveyard close by. The church looked very old and worn and the graveyard was very eerie. It kind of looked like a small eartquake had occured some years ago and unsettled the ground. There were graves at unequal levels and seemed like they were just thrown in places. It was really strange. I wanted to take a picture but it felt wrong to take pictures in there. I wasn't long getting out of there!
I am now starving so it's time to head home. Keith was home when I got back. After I had some grub we headed into B&Q to grab some shelving. Our storage room is just a big heap of stuff, it's driving me batty. Once we got back, our evening consisted of the desk assembly and not much else. It took awhile to put together, which Keith did all himself as too many hands aren't always helpful. Once complete it took us forever to decide on the positioning of it all. We eventually decided to finish it tomorrow and went to bed.
