I N F U S I O N: Whirlwind Trip: Part 1

Total distance: 870km in 2 days.

Where: Planet Earth

How: With the trusty Chrysler (... think the drive shaft gonna KO soon) and outdated GPS.

When: on a weekend where we had nothing better to do

No map. No accomodation plans. Just pack and go. Basically all these places are located in the county of Cornwall. Told Michelle the name of the place came about due to the plantation that was grown during the olden days, which was mainly corn and it grows in rows of huge tall plants, hence the name Cornwall... well she swallowed it hook, line and sinker.. and wasn't too impressed that it was a bunch of fibs... :P

Anyway plan for the day: Head to Land's End (Most western tip of England, 5 hours drive away) and do a quick detour to Newquay, the self styled Surfing Capital of England.... yea rite... the waves at Port Dickson is bigger :P (think was out of season). Anyway Newquay is a real happening place, beach littered with babes and hunks, music blaring from the top of the beach, nice sands and clean waters... good place to juz chill out.

The funny part was none of us were in our beach gear (when we left Havant it was quite chilly in the morning)... so here goes 4 sesat chinese, dah la sticking out like a sore thumb in the sea of mat salleh's... wearing jeans summore hahaha... believe me the stares and smiles we get were kinda embarassing hahaha.

Newquay: The beach, the people and the smell of the sea

A small harbour in Newquay, there was a seal swimming around... if you can spot it ;)

Surfer dudes wannabes with their big pot bellies!

Was trying to keep the ice cream from fallin... was really nice home made stuff...

After spending bout an hour plus at Newquay... we headed to Land's End. We stopped by at this place called Penzance, the last town before hitting to Land's End to find a place to sleepover... was hunting round for cheap places to stay when we came over to a hotel with a bar below and a huge banned furled at the front advertising 19.95 pounds per person... without much further hunting we juz checked out the rooms and then paid for a night's stay and went straight to Land's End...

The famous landmark of Land's End... they're charging 12 quid to have pic taken with it!...

Breathtaking views at Land's End... the blue waters is the Atlantic Ocean... swim across and you'll reach the US ;)

Cliffhanger... spot me!... that's the furthest i dared to go...

no ropes or safety harness at all along the way...

Another view at Land's End

It's summer over here and it's still daylight at 8pm... so we still had time after walking round Land's End... so we tried to look out for a place and a name came out called...... Mousehole. Yea I'm not kidding the place it's really called Mousehole and they are reputed to have one of the prettiest harbour around UK. It's really a nice quaint picturesque little place, narrow roads, crammed houses... it's like crossing into another place outside of UK. The place is strangely... filled with cats. Since I came here I've never seen a cat... until i reached here, maybe they all migrated over here...

Another "strange" thing here was there are honesty boxes at the parking place (for you to drop the parking fees) and also there are people who actually sells shells along lanes and just leave the money box beside it... for you to leave your money if you purchase it. Amazingly no one took the stuff or the money box away!
