Last weekend, Deb, Rich and MollieDog and I went up to Tywardreath to do another Du Maurier walk. It wasn't the most photogenic of walks but the weather was just wonderful - we walked in t shirts and shorts for most of it, and I couldn't get enough of the wonderful sunshine.
The picture above is of what the locals call Crocodile Swamp, a marshy area below the railway bridge that could have been the one where poor Marcus died.
This was the railway bridge that looks quite spooky....
And this was the church where, next door was the most wonderful flowering cherry tree. It was a fabulous walk, and as we climbed one particular hill we looked out over a wooded valley. "That looks good to walk in," I said. Rich was very taken by the idea as he loves geocaching, so on Saturday we're heading off to the Luxulyan valley to walk and geocache there.
So that's my Easter treat! Hope you enjoy yours....

Hi Sue, the Crocodile swamp looks like a lovely walk in the sunshine. It reminds me of a walk we make along the banks of the river Irvine in Ayrshire. Its's a while since we've done it, will have to make sure we do it next time we're up there.
Have a lovely Easter weekend, here's hoping theres not too many grockles about.
The House on the Strand is my favourite Du Maurier novels ( after Rebecca of course) Sounds like you and friends had a wonderful day, Sue. We stayed in this area for a holiday years ago and I tried to follow in the footsteps of this book. Lots of the names of places, fields etc are the same. It was fascinating. xx
Glad you did part of this, too, Rena. Hope all is well. XX
Kim - Hope you have a good weekend too. Lots of visitors here! X
Happy Easter to you.
And to you, too, Addy, hope you are well - going to see how you are!
