Tintagel to Port Isaac - Monday 23rd April 2012
Path Facts - Length: 9 miles, Ascent: 2740 feet
The weather looked pretty bad on the start of this walk. From the B&B the rain was hitting the window and the wind could be heard gusting. Are we fair weather walkers though? Well probably, but nonetheless, after stealing ourselves with what must have been a 10 egg scrambled egg on toast + home made bread (v. nice thank you Bosayne!) we ventured into the cold and wet.
It was cold at first but not as bad as anticipated from inside in the warmth of the B&B. The rain was fairly light and eased off becoming intermittent.
The path is joined again right next to Tintagel castle and I was trying to get a moody photo with the rain and the mist, conjuring up the atmosphere of the place but ended up with Andy inviting himself into the photo, complaining that I needed "people interest" - so this turned out more Monty Python and the Holy Grail:
"Your mother was a hamster and your father smells of elderberries..."
