Westward ho!
Friday, 26th May 2006 by JulieWell it looks like there’s going to be a bit of an enforced break where the Red Sea posts are concerned (I might post-date the last one or two when I get back just for completeness
).
The reason for the break? Tomorrow Tom and I are heading off down south-west for a week’s holiday (yes, I know we’ve just had one). This time we’re going to the scenic counties of Devon and Cornwall.
Our club was so pleased with last year’s dive trip to the southern tip of Cornwall – Lizard Point – that they organised another one this year, and made it a day longer. We’ll be diving from next Thursday to Sunday, and with all the travel, and a bank holiday weekend this coming weekend, it just made sense to make a week of it. As we’d already seen a fair bit of Cornwall as part of our trip down last year, we decided to throw in more of Devon this time around.
The general itinerary is as follows: We’re heading down as far as Exeter this Saturday to stay with some ex-London friends there; and then we’re moving on to a B&B, also in Devon for three nights. Mid-week we’ll drive on down to Cornwall, do our diving, then back to Exeter on the Sunday evening, back to London on the Monday. Whew!
Now all we need to do is pack, and hope for the weather to buck up after a week’s worth of sombre grey clouds and drizzle every couple of hours!
