borth massif outing to penzance cornwall19th oct
half term approaches; well maybe not quite yet but it will be here on friday the 19th october and i am heading down to penzance for the
week. i will be going down late friday evening to miss the rush and snoozing on the front at marazion beach for free. its usually still
shorts and t shirt weather down there and more reliable wind than over the summer months. for those that just want to stay for free you
can park up on the front at marazion beach, note if you use the car park by the cafe you will be charged £5 so mosey along about 20
mtrs and its free. there are 2 really good and cheap camp sites i have used; one above st ives called trevalgen and the other on the
helston road called kennegy cove( this one has a nice pub just up the road in walking distance). beaches to kitesurf are many dependant
on direction of said wind; marazion, the bluff at hayle and gwithian not forgetting sennon cove for those big waves!!!!!
see youz there

I might see you there.
I've got a job in Falmouth during the week prior so may already be there. If I can get a gate pass that is. I've already got one for
the following weekend for a trip to Tiree......

just thought i would remind all you peeps it only 2 weeks away. i will be leaving very late friday night as Rentia is working and it
will allow me to avoid getting stuck in the rush.
aim to be at Marazion beach on the front there first light saturday snoozing............we can all decide where to kite wind direction
dependant; fingers crossed for a S or SW then we stay there. there are 2 sites which i have looked at on the net and stopped there many
times for those occasions when you need showers/water empty tiolets etc.

and
