Newquay adventure

Decided to have a day off from my brother N and J and little-miss A. And as T was on holiday we fancied a trip further afield, so we caught the 08:40 to Newquay. We did the usual tourist things including the aquarium, which although it lacked the size of Plymouth’s it did have a certain charm. The cutest of the day has to go to the cuttlefish… altogether now.. ahhh!

Chilly but sunny day out. Photo above is of a kestrel about to stoop on a small fury thing of some kind. It either didn’t notice us about 10m away, or was feeling particularly hungry and wasn’t going to stop mid hunt. Definitely the closest I’ve been to a raptor kill.

thundering surf…

strong bitting wind…

typical british summer!

Little-miss A was *not* amused – “don’t like it!” “naughty waves” etc! I dont think it helped that she thought the sea was boiling hot :-) Quite sensible thinking for a little un as the sea was ’steaming’!
