August Bank Holiday Monday

We took our time getting up but did not have breakfast this morning as we were booked for lunch at the California Cross.

We packed up and headed off to Modbury for our lunch and we were not disappointed because they had bread and butter pudding on the menu - we were dying to try this as we had been told it was out of this world but it had not been on the menu when we visited before.  The meal was lovely and the bread and butter pudding was wonderful.  We will have to visit again!

A great end to a lovely weekend.

Steamer Quay, Totnes

The next morning, the sun was shining, so we decided to get the bikes off the rack and find the cycle track.  The cycle track took us to the Cider Press in Dartington and we spent a couple of hours looking around and watching the entertainment.

We then cycled back

We stumbled across the Devon Steam railway

 

We cycled back to the van, where It was a lovely afernoon

After lunch , I relaxed and fell asleep in the sunshine. 

August Bank Holiday - Steamer Quay, Totnes

We decided not to go to far for the Bank Holiday as s we were looking to move house so needed to be nearby.  We were booked into the Caravan Club site at Steamer Quay in Totnes, just half an hour away from home.

It was an awful day with thunderstorms and very heavy raing.  When we arrived we were told a lot of campers had left that morning because of the weather and some of the pitches were waterlogged.  We found a dry pitch and soon had the kettle on and were cooking dinner.

The next morning, the rain had stopped but the sky was threatening more rain.  We decided to go into Totnes town, this is only a stroll across the bridge.  However the town is on a steep hill with little independant shops either side but great for exploring.  Several hours later we had exhausted the shops and were back at the van ready for something to eat.

Billy cooked us a lovely Paella.
