Today we went for a walk from Hunter's Inn to Heddon's Mouth. We drove there along the cliffs of Trentishoe Down, then down the steeps sides of a wooded valley. We were lucky enough to find a spot to park along the road avoiding having to pay at the NT car park. From there it was a pleasant amble along the wooded valley though we did run into several showers of light drizzle. In between the showers it was still warm so we steadfastly ignored the rain.
Down at the beach we crossed the stone ridge and found ourselves a spot to sit and have a cuppa.
There were occasional patches of blue in the sky and we could just make out Wales across the sea.
I love rounded stones and yet again came away with a pocketful of stones for the garden. It was lovely to see several family groups finding things to do on the beach that involved only natural objects. Towers were being built, stone pictures made on some of the bigger slabs and impromptu targets being built and aimed at.
Milo was allowed to run off the lead and spent quite a while playing in the breaking waves.
There was a bit more rain as we walked back up the valley but by the time we returned to the car the sun was shining once more.
Back home the postman had been and left several parcels for me; the sheet music from The Hobbit and a box of 22 white china handles from China which I have now put on all the kitchen cupboards.
