I have arrived in Teignmouth, it feels strange that I was in Cornwall and now I'm here.   I went to Porth beach on my last day, it was lovely and hot.  I got the bus to the stop just up from the Mermaid pub, i had to quickly use the bathroom first ( betcha you really wanted to know that didn't you? ) The slipway from the old Lifeboat station on Newquay faces the beach, it's no longer used. I went to Tintagel on the Bude bus, it takes 3 hrs to get to Bude!  Tintagel is one long street with many shops, I decided to seek Tintagel Castle hotel out because of my mobility problems I didn't want to do the castle; but the hotel overlooks it.  Passed two lovely mares in their field, one of them was dapple gray; I don't know if they appreciated the lovely view from their field of the ocean.  I t was very windy so I had to be careful my hat didn't blow off, just as well I shaved my armpits.
