A Wet and Misty St Ives

 Not great weather to be walking in but still good to be out. Parked across from the golf course club house and as per usual, followed The Alter Way signposts all the way up to The Druid's Alter. I didn't hang around too long as the damp, humid weather had brought the damned midges out and they were having a good nibble on me. There was a nice atmospheric mist on the highest section of the walk which went through the woods and this made for some good photos.

Instead of doing my usual loop of the Estate, I went through the kissing gate at the highest part of the golf course and on to Alter Lane, heading back down that way. It shortened the length of the walk but made a nice change.

Coming back this way meant that I didn't pass The Ivy Cottage so no coffee for me. I couldn't have sat out anyway because everywhere was so damp and also it was busy with it being the school holidays.
