Wednesday 16 March - Our first outing with Ian's parents was a trip down to Devon and Cornwall to visit a few of the places that Marty and Jean-Louis had visited on prior trips to England. A four hour drive with lots of haze and clouds meant that we missed a lot of the beautiful Devon views. Our first destination was the small harbour town of Clovelly. Clovelly has been almost unchanged for decades. It is built on hillside so steep that cars can not traverse the climb. All supplies are brought in and out of the village by sled or donkey. Following the cobblestone main street down the hillside brings one to the tiny sheltered harbour at the base. We had a good wander around the village and met a number of village cats. Back up the hill and out via the visitor's centre we hopped back in the car and continued south to Tintagel.
