After a long drive (as in all day) we arrived in Cornwall. I didn’t know that Cornwall had been independent country. Also, people from Cornwall are Cornish. Cornish hens are from here. They still speak as if they’re independent. This is where Justin’s family is from. Through Facebook, we met his 7x cousin once removed. That means Justin’s dad is the 7th cousin.
Just as a side note, I’m posting this one via my phone as the WiFi at this place is less than desirable.
We went to an amazing little hotel with a pub on the coast called the Port William. It’s on the west coast so the sunset was beautiful. It’s literally on a cliff side. The roads were crazy narrow and directions on GPS were not great. But, we found it and in one piece. Views were amazing as was the food. Yummy!!
The next day we set off to meet cousin Richard and his family. They were as great as we expected. They live in Padstow, a very very charming town on the coast. They’re beach people like us. We had a nice surprise in that another one of our cousins was visiting from Essex so we got to meet him too.
Left to Wright: Michael (Richard’s son) Richard (the one who found us) , Mick (from Sussex), Jill (Mick’s wife), and Paula (Richard’s wife). They were so welcoming and funny!! We had such a great time with them.
Below is their house and the Queen Mother welcomed us (look in the window).
They took us to the center of town where there was so much activity. The visitors are mostly domestic and it’s very crowded. Of course we sat down for amazing food again.
If you’re ever in the U.K., come visit Padstow. It’s so so cute!!
In the time we were standing there the tide came in and totally covered up the sandbar.
