St. Ives by bus

Today we left the van on site and took the open top bus to St. Ives along the coast road. Although it was a rather cold and cloudy day we were able to appreciate the cliffs and tin mining heritage sites. St. Ives was busy as expected with the September Arts festival and the weather brightened up a bit. We had a wander around and a Cornish pasties 'on the hoof' from the Oldest Pasty maker in Cornwall (allegedly). Rosemary found a top to buy and we picked up a cream tea kit for later.
Walked back up the hill for the 1 hour coastal journey back. It's a very narrow windy road with lots of passing problems. It started to rain and we got soaked just walking from the bus stop by the site gates. It was the last but one bus of the summer season.
Rosemary cooked the Sole Rols we bought in Portleven for supper and we had a belated cream tea for pudding.
