Talland Bay to Downderry

This blogs relates to Friday. 

Woke up this morning to... yes, you've guessed it: rain! Despite the miserable weather we thought we would go for it and walk. 

There were lots of very, very steep ascents today, especially between Looe and Seaton: crikey they were steep. The path was a mix narrow cliff paths, woodlands, meadows and road walking. 

The weather remained thickly overcast, with drizzle throughout. During the afternoon it got quite blustery. The forecast for the next few days are good. 

Looe was a nice place, a very pretty estuary town. I imagine during the holidays the place is very popular. East Looe has a nice, big beach and easily accessible. After a quick cuppa tea we pressed on to up, up, up the hills to Seaton, finally ending todays walk in Downderry. 

Like Looe i imagine that Seaton, Downderry and the other coastal villages are very busy during holidays, but sadly they all seem outdated. Maybe it was due to the dull, grey day, but Seaton and Downderry were unremarkable: the pub in Downderry was also terrible, it stunk of cats pee! 

See my mum's comment on yesterdays blog for some interesting reminiscence.
