Monday 19 April 2010 Brandis Corner to Bude 30km

Monday 19 April 2010 Brandis Corner to Bude

Over our pints yesterday we both agreed we were due for a day off and thankfully we had at least one rational thought and that if we were to make any grand changes to our plan it should be after a few days rest.

So about our day off, as there isn't much in Brandis Corner we thought we'd have an easy ride to Bude and spend a couple of days by the seaside.  We took a bus down to Boscastle and Tintagel to have a look around and generally took it easy.

Bude has a sea-lock that separates the canal from the sea


The old post office at Boscastle


A ruined 12th century castle at Tintagel (King Arthur was supposedly born here??)


The river runs right through Boscastle


Couldnt get these two to get out of the shot


The river runs to these sea walls that protect fishing boats

the fishing boats

How unusual, we're eating again :)

HTFU you pair. You're on an adventure of a lifetime, no time for doubt. Have a break and then get back on those bikes and continue the adventure. You won't get back this "way" again...
