Went to St Ives today



Nice PANO



Pesky SeaGulls



All the wonderful tourist shops



This pub is always packed



Funny sign in one of the shops



On the bus back to the main car park, view of St Ives from above



Back at Mousehole, and stopped to look at this



And while going to put another parking ticket in the car a all male choir was singing in the car park

Oh what a nice memory of a wonderful holiday with my parents 18 years ago in St Ives. Thank you YoYo for your always wonderful pics from your awesome homecountry. And btw Cornwall is one of the nicest places of the whole world with very friendly people.
.... And YoYo you really could act as a professional photographer. Every photo which you have shared in your thread here in the past until today is a masterpiece!

St Ives... the destination of the riddle made more famous in the movie Die Hard with a Vengeance always comes to mind when I hear the name.

I loved the seagull, the funny sign and especially the all male choir. I love all male choruses. I love the timbre of men's voices.

The pano was beautiful too my friend

Walking back to the carm going through an apple orchord

Beautiful. The upkeep must be enormous. I loved the sculpture of the former owner reclining in repose. It was my favorite. He was so handsome and I'm sure he was very charming and had a grand sized organ to match the harpsicord in the drawing room

edit: I had to know more about this sculpture and found this information

 

[yoyo888]

For those that dont know where that is here you go



If anyone can recomend pleaces to visit, please let me know
