Kingsand Part II

The first thing we had to do, after lugging our bags into the B&B, was head down to one of the little beaches in the town. It was about a 30 second walk. Here's the view from the B&B. Plymouth is just visible in the distance there. We saw lots of big ships coming in and out, and the area is popular with smaller vessels as well.



E loved throwing pebbles into the ocean. When he first clapped eyes on all that water, poor city kid got all excited and said "POND."

In the evening we went looking for somewhere to eat. One drawback - not many choices within walking distance.

Kingsand and Cawsand used to be different towns, but they're adjoined now. Can't remember the exact details, but one used to be in Devon and the other in Cornwall. Now they're both in Cornwall.


E loved walking around. There were lots of "keedy tats" for him to spot and any cars driving through town didn't go much faster than about 5mph.



The towns have lots of little nooks and crannies and features.




And cats!

Still to come - pics of our sandy beach day out (with a wild hike down) and our trip via ferry to Plymouth.
