Our
first campsite in Cornwall is back to last year's at St.Ives,
Cornwall.
This
is a Temporary Holiday Site run by the Cornwall Camping and Caravan
Club – based on the fields above the St.Ives Rugby Club. The
benefit for us is we can park up the van and use a shuttle bus to get
us down into town @ £1 a go.
Looking NE across the campsite – see the rugby posts and the mobile phone post (so excellent mobile and 3 dongle signals!)
Looking across to Godfrey Island Lighthouse
Low tide at the harbour
I've
been in the sea each day so far – twice swimming (no surf) and
yesterday body boarding in 3ft waves. I have the benefit of my old
wetsuit to keep out the wind/cold!
Our pitch with wetsuit drying (fire bucket)
It's
been really windy high up here on the hillside – so much so that we
gave up trying to get the tent up!
A deflated tent! We then packed it away again!
Rain and sun!
After
rain earlier today, it has brightened up and the wind dropped – so
no.2 go at putting the tent up. Success!
Tent pitched and wind break doing it's job!
X marks our spot!
