We just took an amazing 4 day road trip
down to Cornwall
One of the most beautiful places
in the whole of the UK
Our goal was to find our way
to one, very special castle.
I was last in Cornwall when I was 16 years old.
It was a school photography trip during my...
Awkward scarf phase.
Looking back through the film reels and photos,
one image really stuck in my mind:
St Michael's Mount, the castle in the ocean
and the cobbled causeway that leads up to it.
I never walked across to the island
So 9 years later...
I went back.
Near the Cornish border, the heavens opened.
Before long, it cleared and we hit the road again.
From Penzance, we got our first view of what we came to see.
The causeway shuts during bad weather, so we had to hope that the rain was gone for good...
Blue sky...
Storm.
Despite the weather, we decided to try our luck.
and before we knew it...
the rain stopped.
We made it to the mount, but the road trip was far from over.
Now, we had a new target in our sights and every stop in between.
We drove until there was no more road left...
And the English coast, met the Atlantic Ocean.
A trip that started with old memories, ended with new ones.
