Good morning!

I imagine you will already be on your way to me as I write this, but I am awake, and excited, so I am emailing!
I think I have everything packed- there seems to be quite a lot, and I did try only to pack the essentials!
As far as art stuff goes I only have three kinds of paper, pens and pencils and masking tape. Again, I thought those were the basics. I also have two cameras- the beast if the weather's nice, the waterproof camera if it's not!
Still undecided on my coat/jacket as it's v dark out there, but I'll bring both, because my fleecey one is so warm and cosy + will do for camping/the next day as well. I've also packed a pair of soft jeans and my ugly jumper to get changed into, as well as cooling leg gel and foot cream!

Gosh, I hope I've remembered everything!

I only have two pairs of spare walking socks.. I think the rest must be in the wash because I've been wearing my doc martens all week... but I'm sure that'll be fine anyway. And then a nice cosy pair for after the walk I'm so looking forward to camping! The last tiem I went camping was when I was 12 with Jen, and it was that week that we became really good friends. We had an awful time though! This will be supremely better. Still don't have tissues, mustn't forget tissues.
I'm also trying hard to think of myself, ourselves, going out into the depths of Cornwall not just as prepared walkers, but as working artists.
What I need to take from this walk. What I want to document, but also feel and experience. I'm so terrified of missing anything!

I've just checked the weather again, and it's a little windier and cloudier, but still no rain, and about 10 degrees, so we can't complain at that. I have faith that we'll still be able to enjoy the moon- the wind will blow all of those clouds away. And we will be pagans and travellers dancing under the sky and exploring our excellent country.

Right. You will be here in half an hour or so, so I will use my last few minutes to make sure all is well and I'm ready to gogogo.

See you soon for our magnificent adventure!
