(sounds like Tour-key)

Tourquay. Beautiful. Right on the bay. A coastal walk. Sunshine and warmness. Good travelling companions and an all around good day. We did lots of walking (as we usually do) and we thouroughly enjoyed our day out of Plymouth. However, after ten minutes of being there and taking a few pictures my camera battery died. So I got to request pictures from my friend all day.

We walked the Coastal path. It was a bit muddy in bits but on the whole very nice. The water was a spectacular shade of blue and the sky only had a few clouds. Brilliant. At one point, we left the path and did a bit of exploring. We had seen a path leading from the real path and we decided to go exploring. The exploring led my friend and I down a little climb to a rock ledge with a view of this rock arch. We then had to climb up. But we made it and it was worth it. Once we got back in town we stopped for lunch. Worst. lunch. ever! We stopped at a fish & chips place. It was terrible. And not the "Oh, I know it's so bad for me, but it tastes good anyways." NO. I mean flat out terrible. The seagulls however seemed to enjoy it immensely . . . or the single chip we dropped. We chucked it away quickly so as to not get attacked by a hoard of seagulls.

After lunch, if you can call it that, we split up. Two went off one direction and my friend and I went another. We headed off to Kent's Cavern. It was mainly geared towards children and families, but it was a good site anyway. We got to see stalagmites and stalagtites at work. It was interesting and it was unlike anything I've seen before. Not overly fantastic, just different and kind of neat.

On the way back to the train station we stopped in a grocery store and bought real food. More of it and cheaper than the fish and chips. Then at the end of the day we got to see the sun set over the bay. And then we had to run to meet the others to catch the train. A good trip I think!
