9/10 Holiday 17th - 25th June
Me and Ryan travelled on the national express service to newquay from sheffield changing at birmingham starting at 7:50 and arriving at 5:50. It wasn't too bad and was sunny when we arrived. We stayed for the eight nights in the Longbeach Hotel b&b, it wasnt the smartest place but we had everything we needed double ensuite digital tv and a gorgeous view of fistral beach and the golf course out of a massive window by our bed, watching the sun set over the sea was fantastic.
Most mornings we went out for breakfast and had a full english at our favourite cafe's either oceans or tad'n'nicks, eating at random cafes for dinner and tea.
We also spent many a night walking in the surf on the beach as the sun went down or watching wild seals in the harbour terrorizing small boats for a chance of a lost fish.
There wasnt one day it rained, and two or three days where it was absolutly gorgeous hence my sunburn :) , we both even have a tan !
Thursday we went to a small harbour town called mevagissey it was gorgeous, had some fudge watched a cormorant diving and crabs on the harbour bed had a pork and apple pasty gorgeous and visited my favourite pagan store - lavender pillow. The only part of this day which i didnt like was the western greyhound buses which are the worst i have been on three minute connection time only enough room for the locals not sure if your going to get on and every hour ! Hated it :( Except for that was a lovely day we also visited the small aquarium.
Friday we  just walked about newquay taking in what we could and took a walk down to porth where we sat in the sunshine in a small cafe by the side of porth beach with some dinner.
Saturday was a slightly overcast day but still lovely, we visited the zoo and spent 10 - 330 there. Our highlights was the 4 baby meerkats, Lynx eating rabbits head first (just glad already dead) Fossa, otters and Mara. Was sad the rainforest part was under construction missing many animals and the raccoons had gone. Best value quality food at the zoo bbq, proper chicken fillet bbq'd for less than £5 with chilli sauce yum. And an evening walk on towan to tolcarne beach.
Sunday we went to newquay aquarium had a lovely time and then went and did some sun bathing on fistral beach and saw the huge sea crab the seagulls had caught and smashed on the rocks slightly off putting for swimming. lol.
Monday we went to truro this time on the first bus to avoid the greyhound buses lol. Had a quick look round and ryan got his dream theater album. Had dinner at tad n nicks and went on the net then went for some retail therapy and then to the beach.Ryan also had a great time on the 2p falls winning two kitten and a dog keyring a few spidermen goodies also.
Tuesday we braved the buses again but got the 9 40 much better and went to heligan gardens where ryan was attacked by a stick insect. Another lovely day and caught the connecting bus by 5 seconds ! Then went to the local st austell pub and saw the seals down in the harbour it was only a common seal but was a great memory.
Wednesday we just tried to cram everything in walking on the beach towan to tolcarne again and then walking up and down fistral knee deep in warm sea surf and obtaining my sun burn. I bought my bracelet and ryan bought me one too, got some fudge and had a look round. Saw the seals again for one last time only 5ft away.
Whilst away also tried the local booze strawberry wine and cream and strawberry liqeur gorgeous i would reccomend them.
Got the coach back on thursday morning 1030 and got back 9 30 not so bad except for the glastonbury travellers.

Anyhow brilliant holiday probably my best holiday ever me and ryan loved it and i enjoyed showing ryan things he'd never seen and it was lovely.

Long rant over.
