Fri 12 Aug Perranporth to The Lizard

After a good nights sleep we set off to Lizard Point.  We had decided right at the start of the trip that we would visit the most Northerly point of the UK (Dunnet Head) and therefore wanted to get to the most Southerly point so we were destined to visit the Lizard.

I think that the trip as starting to take effect because the first 10 or 15 miles or so seemed to be hard work even though it was only a short day.  We were staying at a B and B in Mullian which turned out to be an absolute gem of a place.  The owners were very helpful and welcoming and have a great place.

Initially we had thought that it would be a good idea to get there early drop the panniers off and for once be able to cycle with less weight on the bike.

Having arrived  and been given tea and biscuits we changed our plans and instead of cycling took parr in a fantastic 5 mile walk along the coastal path.  We wouldn't have missed that for anything.  The views were tremendous and a great change to being on the bike.

Later that night we walked back into the village where there was a good pub with great food. 

We couldn't believe that our trip was nearly over and that the next day we would meet our family again
