Rainy day in Cornwall

The next morning we woke up to a cloudy day. And soon the rain began, first as a mist, then progressing to a steady pitter patter. We had a tasty breakfast in the restaurant part of the pub, still smelling of yesterday’s beer. The cook was busy running back and forth bringing coffee and food to the other guests. There were three cyclists who didn’t seem keen on cycling in the rain.  We’ve been there, done that in Germany. It wasn’t fun. At least on the Romantic Road we had paths. They were sharing on narrow country lanes with camper vans and tour busses.

Through the beauty of our Ooma account, we had used the wi-fi to phone my uncle and aunt the evening before to arrange our pick up time. They would meet us at the London Inn (the only pub my uncle know in Padstow … so it must be good!) at 11:30. But we needed to check out by 10 a.m., so we set off for a walk in the rain.

Port Isaac to Padstow

Our second day of hiking was 20 km along the coast. The first part was a bit challenging, but nothing like the hike to Port Isaac. I think I was better prepared mentally. And it was another beautiful sunny day. Although the temperature was only 17 degrees, it did feel warmer. Perfect for hiking.
