2017 Day Four
It’s our last day in Truro, tomorrow we start the trek East towards France. The pace has slowed, it’s fair to say. Monday sees the locals back at work, it finds us biding time […]
2017 Day Three
There’s much of England that lends itself to fairytales and today exploration is no exception. Unlike Alice down the rabbit hole, it’s down the Mousehole today. Seriously, this is a place, Mousehole. Very possibly the […]

2014 – Day Forty One
After a lazy sleep in, it’s time to explore Wexford. We have a lovely spot right on the harbour. We bike in over the harbour (still loving my bike!) and take in the local sights. […]
