Kynance is such a beautiful place and has a special place in my heart. The whole family, from UK, US, Germany met up there for my parents’ Golden Wedding many years ago. One of my nephews from US found a beautiful piece of serpentine that appeared to be a big pebble split in two and we all admired it.
About 20 minutes later, our eldest found the matching half! We thought this to be so serendipitous that Daisy and her family took their rock all the way back to Arizona and we took ours back to Yorkshire, each keeping them on our hearths and thus remembering each other and our parents. I’ll post a photo of mine with this story one day soon!
All the best to you 🙂

Looks like you had a lovely day! I love lighthouses, and the rocky cliffs remind me a lot of Maine. It looks simply beautiful! I love all the photos!

Wonderful photos. Make me wish I was there, taking a walk (nowhere near the top or the base of the cliffs!), eating pasties. Everything looks so appealing. Thanks for sharing.

My pleasure! It has been a lovely couple of weeks catching up on places we love that we are usually too busy to get to. We must make the effort more often even when we don’t have visitors! 🙂
