A Fortnight in Cornwall #2 - We're on the Breakwater!

Hi there everyone 😀

Welcome to the second of my posts about our fortnight's holiday on the North Cornwall coast at the end of September. It already seems such a long time ago.

It was the first Monday of our break and Lesley and Tom were arriving. They were staying in a chalet not too far away until Friday. They got to us mid-morning and, after sausage sandwiches, we just spent a lovely afternoon back in Bude. 

It was a bit grey overhead but we had our first walk out to the breakwater ...
 

Along with the point at Widemouth Bay, this really is one of our favourite spots ever and we spent a good while just taking in the view ...
... and snapping a few selfies ...
Lesley and Tom even braved the wind to venture up the steps ...
We were soon heading back. The views looking back across to Bude from the breakwater are always a treat ...

We made our way round the back of the castle, via The Peace Garden where we tried to re-live the holiday that Lesley and the girls spent with us not long after Martin and I had met.
The Peace Garden - 2006 - Lauren, Jess & Lesley
The Peace Garden - 2018 - Lesley & Me
This is us all now - in case you were wondering 😀

We did fit in a quick pit stop at The Barge, where we were treated to a lovely and unexpected bit of afternoon sunshine, before Lesley and Tom headed off to check in and we made our way back to West Holm, with plans for a big day out heading South on the following day ...
