Newquay!!

A couple of weeks after getting back from Wales we decided that it was time to start tripping around the UK a little bit more. Abs and Pete recentley bought a sweet campervan and invited us to head sown to Cornwall with them to go to the rip curl surfing champs in Newquay.

The camper is cool - but it does only go 45 miles an hour so we were in for a very very looooong trip. Me and Abs got comfy in the back and fell asleep, leaving the guys to navigate the way down the english roads on Friday night. We finally arrived in Newquay around 3am on Saturday morning and the 4 of us squeezed up in the back of the camper bed which was about the size of a double bed.

We woke before my body clock on the saturday morning and headed into the centre of Newquay to grab a cornish pastry and head down to the beach. After a frollick in the rock pools we headed down to the surfing champs for a day of sunbathing (in my case frying) and beer on the beach. Me and Zane managed to brave the cold and have a dip in the sea, but were promptly told by the lifesavers to get out of the competition area and swim in between the flags. Whoops!

After having a bit too much sun, we got prettied up for a night on the town in Newquay with the locals. we came across a Walkabout pub and got entertained by a very good covers band.
On Sunday morning we had a bit of brekkie and got back in the camper for a long trip back to London so we could get back to work on Monday. We came across Stonehenge on our way which was very cool but also very busy with tourists.
