More on Cornwall

St Ives:
My fav place in Cornwall! Really pretty, very artistic feel. Lovely port and a white sandy beach too. Only took us about an hour to reach - yes, daddy, you are THE man. We had delicious cornish pasties for lunch at the windiest spot, Boo enjoyed her sausage roll and Moo shared my pasty.





Fowey:
Bit of trek to get to from the carpark - lots of steep steps! Nice place but bit small. Didnt like the fact that there are always cars trying to run us down as we walk along the streets (streets are really narrow with no pavement). Had a great meal in a posh seafood restaurant but I ended up on the floor playing with Moo - not a good look. Moo and I took the bus back up to carpark while smelly AM took Boo in pushchair and walked up.


Looe:
I like this place. Nice port, a beach. Had lunch in a quiet cafe so Boo and Moo made all the noise they wanted - which was none coz there's no one to disturb!! We realised, the posher the place, the more noise they make.
o and we realised that when we get an ice cream cone for Boo, we must now get one for Moo or else he will flip! Check out his chocy face after eating his cone.

Cornwall - verdict's still out

We are back from Cornwall, to be exact, Port Isaac.


Do we like it? Well... I really like Port Isaac, very lovely fishing village, quaint shops, small fishing boats in the harbour, GORGEOUS cornish pasties. But the weather was unforgivable. It really poured first day we were there. To the extent that smelly AM wanted to go home! But it did get better as week go by. If I can get Cornwall with sunshine, I would LOVE that place

Still if you ask me, I would rather go to Menorca any day (hee hee...)

We stayed at a lovely house in Port Isaac called Anvia. Its on the top of the hill so had fantastic views.




Went to Padstow on 31 Aug (Sun). Was pleasantly surprised. A very pretty place with trendy shops. Rained a bit but got sunny for a bit too. Overall, very happy 'coz we were out and about at half past 6 on a sunday which we will never get to do when we are back at home!



More tomorrow, have to go and put the kiddos to bed now.

Lots more pics to come!
