Spent the morning in St Ives eating pasties, the seagull only got a little bit and nearly had my finger, and visiting the Tate and Barbara Hepworth's house. The Tate was good, they have a Hepworth exhibition on, but Hepworth's house, garden and workshop were amazing, totally blown away, I could have spent all day there.
6.5 miles walked 200 meters ascent.

Fantastic, good timing
St. Ives has mixed memories for me. When 40 years ago, returning from Falmouth to Bristol, the engine packed up just north of Lands End. We were towed into St Ives by the lifeboat in early evening with the harbour walls lined with (what appeared to be) hundreds of tourist. Walking (rushing) past them to the pub I heard snatches of outlandish explanations for our fate. (Mind we did look a bit odd, being us).

I remember balancing against the harbour wall on a fin keel waiting out a gale, that was about 40 years ago as well!
