Surfing in Cornwall

Fistral Beach, Newquay, CornwallBack from the beach I’m peeling and Miki has become a devoted boogie boarder. Surf was running 3-4' at Fistral beach, messy on foggy Friday, smaller and more regular on Saturday and Sunday. My first time back in the surf since NSW in 2001. Man, was it good to be rolling and tumbling again! The beach was packed with boogie boarders and board surfers, but bodysurfing seems almost unknown in the UK.

Camping at Penvose FarmWe camped at Penvose Farm outside Watergate Bay, dined and drank at the Aussie-casual Phoenix pub, and pottered slowly home across Dartmoor, purple with heather, with a last stop in Devon at Moretonhampstead for a clotted-cream tea before the long haul home on the M5 and M4. Miki’s inspired: today baked fruit and plain scones to carry the Devon clotted cream we brought home.
