A Cornish new year.

We headed down south on the 30th and came back last night, a really great mini break and a lovely way to see out the old year and welcome in the new.

Nothing was planned we took each day as it came, the weather was kind if a bit blowy,so we were able to get out and about everyday. 

New years eve we decided to visit Mevagissey, the boys are not great walkers !

we poddled around , watched the fishermen come in, and ate a lovely lunch on the quayside. I much prefer Cornwall at this time of the year so quiet!

We drove back along the coast and stopped at Port Pendennis, it was blowing a gale and everyone bar me decided to stay in the car!

New years eve, we visited the local village pub and came back and ate a fabulous curry! bliss

Up and out the next day, New Years day. hubs and the boys decided they wanted a sofa day, so Jules and I headed out to the lizzard, we picked another friend up along the way and had a girly walk out.

It was blowing a gale, very difficult to stay upright! and freezing cold but just the thing to blow out the old year, I loved it. We sat at the end of the point and grabbed a coffee in the cafe and just watched the sea, it was wild, I could have sat there for hours just watching it move, there was a lone seal bobbing about he looked to be having great fun.

Back home to a shared meal with friends. Another fabulous day.

Yesterday was  our day to depart, Jules had to work from lunch time so we headed home late morning deciding to take the north coast route back.

First stop was Portreath, another place I love, quite barren but the sea is amazing, its one of the places that's on our possible move to list!

we grabbed some pasties, admired the view and dreamed. one day.

Back in the car, stopping at various scenic spots then decided to drive down to Boscastle, hubs has never been there!

bitterly cold but quite busy with tourists, the boys had had enough by then and didn't want to walk around the point, hubs and I have decided to make another visit as we didn't get to see much at all, moaning teenagers are not fun when they are cold, bored and hungry!

And that was it, our time was up, over too soon as always, but we will be back!
