Nanjizal

On another trip to Cornwall the skies cleared for one day of the five, so we took the opportunity to check out a new beach. Nanjizal lies somewhere near Lands End, and requires a bit of a walk across fields to the beach. Once there, the boys and Nana got stuck into the frisbee throwing while I tried to keep warm by curling up on the sand. The sea was rough, and no-one was swimming apart from two enormous seals, who hung out just by the shore for hours. Then I spied Nana in her bikini, climbing across the rocks. Before I had time to wonder what she was doing, a huge wave swept her off, and she disappeared under the water and onto some rocks below. She was rescued quickly, emerging with a bloody toe and knee, and I learned that she had been trying to recover the frisbee from the sea. We all wandered back up across the fields, spying basking sharks in the sea below.
