Port Isaac to Padstow

We decided to forego a full English breakfasts in order to get away early. Our B&B provided us with a continental breakfast on a tray and we were on the road by 7am. There was high cloud so it stayed reasonably cool for the hard part of the walk through Port Quin and Polzeal. Kevin finally got his pasty in Polzeal - and a very good one it was. Again the sea in the small coves was crystal clear and a beautiful turquoise colour. Still a lot of up and down but easier than yesterday, despite being 2 miles more. From Just beyond Polzeal to Rock, we walked on the damp sand. As we got into Rock at 1.30, much earlier than we thought, Kevin persuaded us to walk up to Sharp's Brewery, which he assured us was only half a mile, at most, up the road. By the time we got there it was a good 2 miles UP the hill. We sampled some Orchard cider and bought a few bottles! As a penance I made Kevin carry my 6 bottles back down the 2 miles to the ferry!! We found our B&B but they are not very accommodating. The said we could have breakfast whenever we liked but when we said 7am she said Kevin could only have a 'modified' full English as it was too early to do the full thing. Kev not amused
