🙂 Great weather. Titanic at the Minnack Theatre

Kynance Camping, just outside the village of Lizard and a short walk from its pubs, farm shop and places to eat. This is a great spot from which to explore the countryside and coastline of this gorgeous part of the world – a footpath/bridleway next to the site leads to the village and then on to the end of the peninsula. Dogs and fires allowed. We had chosen this spot for our annual Easter Camping with the usual crew – it was great for walks with Kynance Cove nearby.

We had planned a long coastal walk…unfortunately Pail slipped and landed firmly i the biggest dog poo you have ever seen!! We had to run back to the campsite for him to get changed and throw away his fav jumper!!

We rejoined the group and had a lovely stroll with the dogs enjoying the views.

We had ice creams in the nearby town.

We cooked up the usual storm with Paul’s magnificent curry.

On Sunday morning the children were relieved to find that The Easter Bunny had not forgotten them! Warren made up some fun games for them to challenge their wits!

That evening we went to the Minnack Theatre to see a production of the Titanic as it was the 100 year anniversary of the sinking of the ship. It was brilliant. It is such a spectacular setting for a stage!
