The Moon

Daily writing prompt
Do you have a favorite place you have visited? Where is it?

I haven’t visited the moon, but it is one of my favourite places. We were outside taking a photo of it and we managed to see all the craters that mark the surface of it. Amazing. It’s also where the Clangers live.

Namaste and Thank you for reading.🙏

St Ives Car Park

Do you have a favorite place you have visited? Where is it?

Some have favourite places,others have favourite places thrust upon them.

The St Ives Car Park  was most definitely thrust upon me.

I first visited the place with my late mum and dad who were  visiting me in Bristol where I had started a new job as a sales representative for a now bankrupt manufacturer of chocolate.

I was rather pleased with my new Company Car,so one day I offered to take them out for a drive.I’d heard about St Ives in Cornwall and thought it would be nice for a visit.

A four hours drive each way in torrential rain and we only had a brief half hour walk around the car park at the top of St Ives,we could see through the mist ,the town harbour and got the impression it would have been nice,if the weather had been better.Still it was getting dark and we had to get back.

I had forgotten about St Ives and really hadn’t a clue where it was,until I met my husband whose family holidays were always two weeks in Cornwall(Kernow). We had such wonderful times,and of course we visited  the St Ives  Car Park on a nice day.

I just remembered getting my bearings and retracing the steps I took with my  late mum and dad around that Car Park .

I had quite forgotten the  St Ives Car Park , but those few metres  brought back a happy memory of my parents ,of time spent with them.I walked through the town of St Ives in a daze, in hot sunshine and couldn’t help but think how much they would have enjoyed the walk too.

Namaste
