Friday, September 10th 2010 - Mariners, St. Mawes, Cornwall

We got ourselves and the car all organized as we leave Mariners today.  Had a chance to meet Julie whom we corresponded with from Canada, so that was nice to meet her and have a wee chat.  We loved being there and the house was great for us all.  We are excited about the arrangements made to join Theresa & Ian and Tricia in Glasgow on Sunday and are enjoying our last couple of days in sunny Devon/Cornwall area.  Mary was supposed to join us for the Menack Theatre and The Old Vicarage but because of work issues she just couldn't get away, so we had to continue on without her.  Probably helped with the decision to hop on up to Glasgow to meet up with everyone there.  On our way, we stopped again at St.Michael's mount and walked the road all the way up and back again.  I'm not that strong a swimmer, so we kept our eye on the tide and made it back in time.  But as you can see by the bottom picture here, we weren't back long from our trek (maybe 15 minutes) before the tide came in and covered the road completely - amazing.  The Old Vicarage was great, huge rooms... well a suite really and the place was in a beautiful setting right next to the Church.
