We drove the short distance to Helston where we parked in the large free car park at the bottom of the town. Donning our walking boots and wet weather gear we set out on a hike around The Loe. This large lake was formed when the former Helston estuary silted up forming the huge sandbar of Loe Bar.
After a while the “mist” cleared and we had a very enjoyable walk. As we returned to Kiki for lunch we noticed some portaloo’s in the car park. After lunch we emptied our toilet cassette - this was quite a relief because with most campsites closed we’re having difficulty finding suitable places!
After lunch we walked up into Helston. This town, the second oldest in Cornwall, has lots of old buildings and pretty houses. After wandering around for a while we popped into Costa for coffee (and an After Eight hot chocolate for Emma).
Returning to Kiki we drove a few miles down towards the Lizard and found a nice deep lay-by to park in for the night.
