The House is History

It is done. We turned over the keys to the house at 17 Pentire Crescent this morning and are now officially homeless!

We have enjoyed our time there. We moved in during the first part of May 2004, and over the following 32 months, we welcomed 31 American visitors (and Uncle Bob from Kent!) to the Alkula B&B on the Cornish Riviera for visits ranging from a day to nearly a month. All in all, it was a wonderful place to hang our hats. Now it is on to the next adventure.

After some time spent at the soon-to-be ex-office of Charles, we had a farewell lunch at the recently renovated Merrymoor Inn Pub in Mawgan Porth (www.merrymoorinn.com). This was as close to a "local" as we got and the changes they've undertaken this month were amazing. Sadly, Belinda ate some raw onions in the cole slaw (not Bill Miller's were her words) and so we cut-short our day out. After gathering our wits at the hotel,we went out for a walk in Newquay and ended up here at a cyber-cafe`. Now we're back to the hotel before the evening crowd begins to show itself on the streets of Newquay!

Tomorrow is church, come back to see where we went!
