Day 0

Nadia,Niki, Heather, Carol, Sue, Suzanne.  

Travel from Manchester to Newquay. Flybe. 1030 am. Arrive 1140am. Smooth flight I think. I slept. And missed it. Apart from noticing a group of pensioners who polished off 3 famous grouse and ginger each on the 1 hour flight!! 

Minibus transfer to st just where we found a cafe and ate a massive lunch. Cheesy beans on brown toast for me and a mug of latte.  

Then off, on foot to cape Cornwall. The beach. The cove. The waves crashing in. Time to watch the seals bobbing in the water. Time to take in nature and be grateful to be alive. Time also to get bitten on my bum by an ant!!   

Then a lovely coastal walk to the yha at lands end. Not actually at lands end at all. And a sit in the garden overlooking the sea whilst we waited for the van with the bikes and 3 other group members, Liz,Jo and Glynis.

After bike mechanics and check in, an hour of sleep before dinner.

Bubbles to celebrate and great company. Lots of laughs. 

In bed by 9. Good night. Big day tomorrow.
