I thought of that while riding my bicycle.

Newquay to Land's End 46 Miles


Mad! It's been an emotional day and utterly indescribable.

The fog never lifted and I never saw any of the beautiful sights of Cornwall but I did make it to Land's End. Not that I knew I was anywhere near it until I passed a private land sign on my side of the road, it was so foggy I didn't see the great big sign on the other side of the road.

When I got to the cliffs I couldn't even see the sea. The fog added to the otherworldly bemused feeling of being in a bubble. I can't believe its over.

As I arrived at the complex 'Help the Aged' shuffled onto my i pod. I took my photos and had a pint before going down to the viewpoint, sitting on the bench and staring out to sea. The fog had lifted and finally I could see the stacks jutting out of the ocean. I put 'To the End' on the stereo and had a moment before setting off back to Penzance and my hotel.

Mad. Totally mad.
