Day 32. Monday, 5th July. Wembury to Bigbury On Sea. Weather. Sunny peroids, becoming more sunny as the day went on. Ideal walking weather. Took the ferry to Noss Mayo across the Yealm at the start of the day then on, using easy paths to Mothercombe beach to cross the Erme. This time there was no ferry so had to wade across. This is only possible one hour either side of low tide, which, today was 17.12, so had to sit and wait in hot sun for the tide to recede. Crossed with my new-found walking mate, Nobby from Harwich whose son is a tractor boy. We've been in contact, usually in the pub at night, since Falmouth. The final 5 miles were quite strenuous but crossed some beautiful cliffs now changing to red rock from the now familiar blacks and grays. Had a baguette and four pints on Burgh Island.14 miles. Total 440.
