May 16 - Port Isaac to Padstow


We had a strong headwind as we walked the 10-12 miles down the coast to Padstow. The sun was out but there were fast moving clouds blowing towards us, later we had a couple of quick rain showers. Huge waves were crashing along the rocky coast making for dramatic views. We finally found a sheltered place from the wind and had a quick lunch.
After a blowing sand, stinging-your-face walk on the last path section, we caught the small passenger ferry to Padstow across the estuary (avoiding another 20 miles of walking). We had a small hail storm as we walked up to the grocery store for our provisions, it passed quickly and we saw the rainbow as a reward.
Having a great time, but we are nearing the end of our trip.
