Weekend in Devon and Cornwall

Cornish FlagNear Bude.Having a Kitchen was so fantastic.

I broke my balloon.

Outside of our cottage doors.

Yes, this is an actual road (just one of many like it.) The picture doesn't do it justice. You cannot imagine how small it really was. But the GPS recognized it. The first night driving 5 hours to Devon, we got within 6 miles of the resort and had to turn around the road was washed out. Thank goodness for the GPS. We arrived 1 1/2 hours later around 1 am and finally got everyone to bed by 2 am!

It was so windy, it was difficult to walk.

Set into a steep hillside, Clovelly is one of the most famous villages in the world. The single cobbled high street winds its way down the hillside through traditional whitewashed cottages festooned with fuchsias and geraniums.

Unusually, the village is privately owned and has been by the same family since 1738. Their policy is to care for Clovelly and keep it in the style of the mid C19th. Traffic is banned from the high street with visitors parking at the top of the hill.

The pictures don't do justice to Clovelly.

Every single street and staircase. You could never do this with a cane, wheelchair, etc.

The old biddy in the back was named Bill. What a great treat and view.End of the day recharge. Yummy.
Westward Ho! (only town with an ! in its name), North Shore of Devon.
Beautiful scenery, but very cold and desolate.
The biggest tic tac toe game ever.

Cuddles with X.
Dinner at Hoops

Yummy. Had a great conversion with an elderly couple :). The gentleman had four US soldiers staying with him as a child, preparing for D-day. Only one returned from the invasion. He visited them many years later. They ended the evening by giving the "great children" money for
an ice cream.

Good Travelers
