Dark Chocolate Sorbet

Yesterday at the Wharf

There was a large crowd with us at the windy Wharf today, everybody waiting for innocent victims (tourists) to become soaked. 

 Our favorite little sweet cottage is right there, and whenever we stay we hover around watching at high tide. It's only a matter of time before, WHAM! down it comes at high velocity on their hapless little heads. The watchers laugh and the tourists scream. Without fail. Today's tide was massive, so we sacrificed our dryness to see what would happen, taking videos. I became wet but it didn't matter, because of my new waterproof coat.

The children of St Ives loved getting soaked. Their mothers called for them to "Get away!" but they ran through it the way they would a sprinkler in the heat of summer (does Cornwall ever have sprinklers in the heat of summer? I'm thinking, not).

 I can hardly believe we have only one more week in Cornwall. During that one week, we want to hit the Coffin Trail again, walk St Michael's Way again, go to Wild Church again, and eat as many Moomaid's Dark Chocolate Sorbet cones as can fit into a normal sized tummy. (only it might not be normal sized right now)..

See you along the way!
