10. thanks
I had a great time.

If you ever have a chance to sip a pint of St. Austell brewery's Tribute Ale, I'd heavily recommend it. (less than 5% alcohol, but tasty as all get out)

12. In Cornwall
Near St. Austell. About 6 hours from London by car.

What struck me most about everything, both in town and out in the country side, were the colors of the place. Everything was painted up all festive.
