South West Coastal Path 2015 Day 25

Friday 18^th September 2015

It was a slow start to the day, after little sleep from cars racing up and down the road during the night, catching the 9:45 ferry to St. Mawes and then the 10:30 ferry to Place, so the day’s walking did not start until around 10:50.

It was a good day’s walking, with my shin holding up, only squeaking at me once or twice during the day, but swollen by the end.  I got to East Portholland at 4:30, only just in time to get to the post office/café to buy a few items for dinner before they closed.  The woman there, Jane, offered to cook me a pastie but said it would take an hour, so I agreed.  I go to check in at the B&B and they had dinner cooking for me also, assuming that I would want it because of the lack of anywhere else to eat.  LOL.  Jane delivered the pastie, but I decided to keep it for tomorrow.  My bedroom window looked right out over the bay.

East Portholland had recently been used as one of the filming locations for Tim Burton’s film, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.
