At last a sunny day in July and it is St Stithian's Day, so we are all hoping the rain has decided to stop???
A couple of weeks ago, we had travelled the roads around Bigbury, Averton Gifford, etc in the kit car and on the way had stopped to admire the view of Thurlestone Bay from a car park perched on the cliff. Today, we would make the most of the fine weather and attempt a bit more of the SW coastal path. The path was very well defined and the route easy.
Bob had a nerve racking journey back along the wooden bridge - see video below
