After breakfast we went to St. Michael's Mount, a castle on an island that can be walked to at low tide. We cut it fairly fine on our return as the incoming (and freezing) tide reached above our knees, yet even as we were reaching the shore people were still starting across - including young children - even though there are boats to ferry people back and forth when the tide is too high.
After that we alll headed off separately for the afternoon to give the newly married couple some time on their own. We drove through Penzance but didn't see any pirates, so settled on the cute village of Mousehole for lunch, before continuing on to Land's End, the westernmost tip of mainland England. After taking in a cheesy "4D" movie (there is a very touristy group of attractions and shops there) we strolled along the coastline around Lands End, before heading back for a lovely dinner on the holiday house's veranda overlooking the ocean. Another fun, late night was had by all as we said goodbye to the rest of the "Aussie" contingent who had to leave in the morning.
