Easter 09 Adventure - Day 5

Short notes from Easter Monday (13 April 2009) - and the last day I wrote notes that trip... it did continue for another week but hey, I was on holidays...!

• Found a place that produced its own cider, liqueurs, ginger whiskey, strawberry champagne and also super lemon curd ☺ • Explored Exeter’s Old Quay and the outside of the Cathedral. • Lots of driving all the way from Dorset across Devon and Dartmoor National Park and into Cornwall. • A quick car stop to take photos at one point drew the attention of the local miniature ponies who barrelled towards us! • Stopped for a short walk at Steps Bridge. • Could see for ages in Dartmoor. It reminded us a bit of Australia because it looked dry though we doubted that it actually was. Ponies and sheep wandering through. • Arrived about 6:30pm at Boswinger YHA. Twas pouring. After a nap, found a local pub (at Garron Haven) with lots of local boys and girls. Felt ancient comparatively. • Made a yummy dinner of pasta and pesto, asparagus (still delicious!) and pork/apple/sage sausages – the best ever! [yes, we think about food A LOT] • Loving the fact that we still have so much holiday to go! Loving sleeping for 8-9 hours a night. Going to bed early. So good.
