We spent three nights in London, Marta enjoyed shopping at Hamleys, going to the British Museum, the Tower Bridge, the parks with their flowers and the brave squirrels eating from her hands...
After London and our shopping escursions, after stopping by Stonehenge and looking at the mysterious stones, we moved to Lyme Regis for a couple of days and my wife Licia had a great time there, searching for fossils... and forgetting how quick the tide changes! We got trapped in a corner and had to swim back to the dry land... ;-) We also were greeted by a group of dolphins playing near the harbour... beautiful creatures!
Finally we moved to Cornwall and Marta had the time of her life there, jumping in and out of the waves, running on the sand, eating fish and chips (chips most of all!) and cuddling all the cats she could find (and there were many!) in Mousehole.
We managed to see lots of interesting places there: the Minnack Theatre, Penzance, St. Michael, St. Ives and of course Mousehole!
The journey back from Cornwall to Stansted Airport was quite long and exhausting, but at the Guesthouse we stayed I discovered some nice old Irish saying...
A great and pleasant time and a relaxing holiday with lots of surprises... till the next one, next year, maybe Portugal?
