Day 6: Rainy rainy rain...

Okay so we have been very lucky with the weather so far but yesterday the heavens opened in dramatic fashion and have not stopped!!!

We headed out early to Polzeath again with out wet suits as the waves were approx. 5-6foot. Although a little choppy I still had a great time. My arms and shoulders are knackered now though...I'm in desperate need of a massage.

We spent the rest of the day messing about on the beach and drinking hot chocolate.

Day 5: Newquay...

Yesterday me and the bf decided to head to Newquay to have a little explore. We headed to Fistral bay but the waves were seriously non-existent so then we headed into Newquay town for a little mooch about.
Newquay wasn't what I expected really?! A lot of people had 'bigged it up' to me so I was a little let down. I know it's a great night out but I expected it to be a little more picturesque but I still had a great time exploring it's beautiful coastline.

That evening we ate out at a little pub in Port Isaac and had a few drinks which was great. Only a day or so left until I have to go back to work. Hopefully we are going to get back in the water if the waves pick up.

Day 4 part 2: riding some waves...

After exploring Tintagel, in the afternoon we went to a pick your own strawberry field which I haven't done since I was about 9!?

We then headed to Polzeath and the bf actually got me in the water! We did some body boarding for over an hour and I LOVED it!!! It's meant to be a decent surf tomorrow and if so we are going to head there again.

Day 4: edge of the world...

In the morning we went to Tintagel which is the legendary birthplace of King Arthur. The scenery was stunning and the cliffs so sheer that it felt like the edge of the world.

The bf did some snorkelling and swimming in the little cove and took the photo of the waterfall for me. I meanwhile chilled on the beach and caught some sun.

Day 3: Pimms & Camel Trail...

Yesterday we headed to Padstow and hired out bikes. I really wanted to hire a tandem but the bf wasn't as keen haha.
We rode the Camel Trail to Bodmin and back (getting covered in mud in the process!) but it was such a fun day and great scenery.
The weather was a bit showery but there was still time for a spot of harbour-side chilling with some Pimms

Day 2: super sand castles...

Today we hit the fine sands of Polzeath. The sun was shining (surprisingly) and I spent the day building a 'super castle', chilling and eating Cornish ice-cream...yum.
Even though I can do all these things at home on Weymouth beach I don't really have the time to do it so it's nice to be a tourist for a week at the seaside
