Carnewas, Padstow and Racecourse

We had a really good carvery for dinner and a good night's sleep in the car park.

Set of for Padstow via the north coast stopping at Carnewas where there are dramatic cliffs and famous Bedruthan steps down to the beach. I walked along the cliffs as far as the steps to take photos of the stacks and cliffs. It was low tide and the steps were open if you were feeling fit, but there are 125 wet steep stone stairs. Maybe a few years ago I would have been tempted, but not today.

Rosemary shopped in the NT shop and made it as far as the viewing area.

We took the park and ride into Padstow as the car parks were rammed as usual. There were queues for Rick Steins fish and chips, as usual and lots of senior visitors wandering around as usual. We joined in, as usual. Rosemary bought some new shoes for the next holiday.

We left late afternoon and put 70 miles of A30 behind us stopping overnight at Exeter racecourse. Its cloudy today with some bright intervals and wet roads, but we missed the showers.
The CMC site is actually in the middle of the racecourse with the track and grandstands just behind the site.
