Newquay
St. Ives
Oh Boy..
So, this past weekend, i headed down to Cornwall, Southwest England. It was absolutely beautiful, which you will soon see via video and pics. I had an amazing time. Along the way, I was able to see Stonehenge, which is massive and to be honest, sure it is a bunch of rocks... but it is bunch of rocks that have been here for over 2000 years!! amazing!
Newquay, Cornwall is an adorable little surfing village. Very young and hip. And they even had a Griffin Inn, which of course i popped into and CLEARLY stood out in... i am definitely, NOT A LOCAL! it was quite funny, because i actually felt like i had to explain myself as to why i was there, so i did!! but it was still quite cute.
The next morning i got up and went surfing!! i know, Rachel-I HATE THE COLD- Griffin rented a nice 5mil suit and booties and hopped into the water, and to my surprise, i was nice and toasty!! my hands and head were a bit chilly, but it was still amazing all the same! i would have stayed in there for hours, but i gave myself a 2hr deadline, so i could head to St. Ives.
St. Ives is beautiful, as well. Cornwall is my new FAVORITE and i want to live there forever and ever! St. Ives (which i assume is where the hand lotion is from??) :-) is adorable. very family-vibe .. little fishing type village with quaint little artist galleries... and about a million.. ok.. not a million, but about 10 little ice cream parlors all in a row!! which i found a bit odd, yet, each and every one had people in them!
Anyway... St. Ives was great and there is a fantastic little cove to surf there, too!! right below the Tate Museum! Fabulous!! Definitely worth the trip!!
Hope you enjoy the pics and my deranged videos!! :-) and sorry for all the wind!!
Love you!
