One of the oldest town in the country is Marazion.......
where even the Post Office has its creative side.......
round the corner in the Market House Gallery there are some excellent examples of reasonably priced Newlyn Copper for that unusual gift......
with a strong nautical theme.......
evident in most of the pieces......
across the road a gallery with an excellent selection of highly collectable Glynn Macey originals and prints at affordable prices inside the Out-of-the-Blue Gallery........
down the road and the Mount immediately makes its presence felt under the afternoon sun......
with plenty of beach to enjoy when the tide is still out.......
watched over by a pair of cavorting dolphins.......
the spotless sand provides one of the safest beaches in Cornwall.......
despite the screaming Northerly beeze........
giving rise to plenty of beach combing for anyone needing to collect examples of flotsam and jetsam for art groups.......
and a host of clouds to conjure flying by......
with shadows........
and patterns galore.......
and buried treasure of sorts......
make it easy to uncover all sorts of patterns......
and textures at every step........
of the cycleway.........
up the hill by Penzance Station there's fine local seafood on offer for the discerning traveller.
