Roadtrip :: Cornwall

Road-trips can be amazing experiences, and I love them. Exploring new places, meeting new people, having a cool time with friends on the journey, it all makes for new life experiences and also creates lots of stories to laugh and reminisce about later on (especially in the darker winter months).

So, I thought I would share some from a recent road-trip to sunny Cornwall.  Being one quarter of the 4togsblog, we planned a road-trip for the four of us, the idea was simple: find a base point, and explore from there… We decided to go with Newquay, for no other reason than none of us had been there.  Unfortunately one of the quartet had to drop out due to work commitments, valiantly though we carried on as a trio.

With sunglasses and cool looking hats packed, we set off looking forward to the week ahead of us, we did decide to remind Mark as often as possible what he was missing out on, while we were enjoying the road-trip.

Starting off we have James & Ade, the other 4togsblog members on the road-trip.

Views over the main beach in Newquay, not much surfing here; that’s about half a mile to the left around the headland on Fistral Beach.

All important sunglasses in the sunshine, and yes I know they needed cleaning!

The maestro of (dis)organisation.

This guy was one of the coolest bar persons we’ve met. The Fort was a regular stop, mostly due to the awesome cliff top beer garden.

The obligatory drinks images, I do believe they all taste better in the sunshine.

Couple of random shots from Lands End, the shop below sold the most amazing ice-cream from a local producer.

The last three images are all from the quaint little harbour at Mousehole on the southern coast of Cornwall, just south of Penzance, the roads are unbelievably narrow all around here, but worth the effort to visit.

After sharing this, I want to know: Where are you going for your road-trip this year?

    How can you just be blogging these now? Are you not dying to see your photographs as soon as you’ve taken, I could never be so patient, I’ve never not processed photographs within hours or days of taking them.

    They are super gorgeous though :O)
