THIS is what I'd come to Cornwall to see!!
Porthcurno Beach!  Guy stopped along the road so I could take this photo.

 
A lovely, windy day at Porthcurno
As we got closer, I had him stop again.  It just kept getting more beautiful!

 
Guy called this the 8th wonder of the world
This is the Minack Theatre, across the cove from Porthcurno Beach.  It was built in the 1930s, and carved directly into the cliff face.  Today, there are dozens of open-air productions each summer.  I was about halfway down when I took this.

 
A closer look at the beach
Beside the theater gift shop, there was a stairway carved into the rocks, which lead down to the beach.  Feeling adventurous, Gabe and I climbed down, though I went a bit further to the beach path.  On my way back up, it started raining!

 
Minack Theatre is just the other side of this cliff
This is what I had to battle to get back to the top before it poured.  I didn't quite make it.  LOL
