We left Somerset and headed to Cornwall, the plan was to stop off at Davidstow Airfield before heading down to our new digs near Marazion. Problem was the weather, thick fog! We did go to the airfield and managed to winkle out a couple of Wheatears and a few Meadow Pipits, but was pretty dismal stuff, so we abandoned early and headed to the Wendron Pancake Barn and gorged on Gluten free Pancakes, which cheered me up no end! Free refills on me Mocha as well, can't be bad!

| Margie's did look tasty |
 |
| But I went traditional Blueberry, Bacon and Maple Syrup! |
We spent the rest of the day settling into our new Cottage sadly no Hot Tub!
The next day we decided to give the car a rest and stayed local, heading down public footpaths to the costal path, our target the Cudden Point
It was an enjoyable walk, though longer than we thought, lots of Butterflies, Birds weren't as numerous but managed a few pics!
