We have been without internet access for a couple of days now, living rough (not really).

After Tintagel, our next stop was the very small coast village of Port Isaac. We arrived on Thursday May 14, and also stayed there May 15 doing a little site seeing and looking for where they were filming the latest series of Doc Martin. Sure enough, we found the film crew had posted a schedule and we found them in the nearby Port Gaverne.

We stayed at the Slipway Hotel, with a view smack dab in the front center of the town, where the lifeboat station is located. It's a busy area, with tourists in cars trying to get through the narrow streets. They allow parking on the beach, but people must be out before the large tide comes in.

These days were marked by very windy conditions and on again - off again rain. Plus, this is cold weather by California standards... the locals had shorts and sandals on, we had our gore-tex hoods up. The air is very fresh coming right off the ocean.
