The night before Josh had been adamant I needed to speak to the six chaps next to our table. &#8230; this morning was clearly the time! I asked them if their was a reason for their LEJOG and they said they were a church group !! Thank you Jesus. We all had a great time of Prayer in the restaurant and then blessed each other on our respective journeys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> I then again bidded fairwell and headed off towards Marazion and St Michael&#8217;s Mount. Very windy from the east but glorious sunshine.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/4acrefarm.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/1652600189213_9494286394_e69788eb_v12298777137676819558-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1488\"\/><figcaption>Mount St Michael. Marazion. Had a great chat with a local guy and let him knownwhaybi was doing &#x1f44c; <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>From Marazion headed towards Falmouth with a couple of stops. I passed an open methodist church and felt to go and pray for them which they gratefully received. I continued into Falmouth and then met with family and friends (Jon and Anna white) at Swanpool beach. Had a spot of lunch a time of Prayer (of course) and then back on the road this time to the otherwise of Falmouth by the maritime museum. I arrived with a few minutes to spare and got the boat across to St Mawes. Again very windy and one very very steep hill put of St Mawes I thought I was going to be walking but managed to stay on the bike &#x1f44d;&#x1f60e;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/4acrefarm.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot_20220515-135137_Komoot.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1489\"\/><figcaption>Here&#8217;s a screen shot from my GPS.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As I arrived at St Mawes the weather broke the rain started.

I only had 25km to make it to Mevagissy but the legs were tired and the wind and the rain didn&#8217;t give much restbite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a happy sight to see a friend as I peddled along the Roseland peninsula. I&#8217;d messaged him prior to me coming to Cornwall I&#8217;d messaged him again in a lay-by  to say I&#8217;d be near and if he was available to find me from tracker on the website. 2 minutes after I messaged him. He was parked next to me in a lay-by &#x1f60e;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I arrived into a wet Mevagissy and was then collected by the same friend and taken to a warm bed and dinner. A great day! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/4acrefarm.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20220515_1623322972231292042953862-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1491\"\/><figcaption>A slightly inclement Mevagissy. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>More tomorrow.. blessings Jim<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An eventful day with a number of divine appointments.
