Firstly, sorry for the delay- I'm having difficulties getting on line with my netbook. WILL TRY TO ADD PHOTOS SOON!<br><br>Woke to beautiful blue skies then, after saying goodbye to Rob, who's work takes him all around Europe, Ann dropped us off at the car hire joint at Gatwick Airport and we climbed aboard the Hyundai i30.<br>First stop along the M23 etc was Stonehenge, freezing cold ...

Why, you may well be asking, does a blog about our "Indo China Experience" start in the chocolate box village of Stoke Gabriel in Devon's bucolic South Hams? Well, it was whilst on a long weekend in Devon in May 2009 that we decided beyond all doubt that I absolutely had to be brave and ask my boss for some extended leave in order to work as volunteers in Cambodia. And it was indeed the fickle hand of fate that turned my procrastination into ...

Today we went on a day trip to Tintagel and Newquay.<br><br>Tintagel Castle (now the ruins of) is the legendary birthplace of King Arthur, and lies on an exposed headland on the north side of the Cornwall peninsula. There is a lot of history there; some findings suggest that it was occupied as long ago as 200-300AD! There is a small chapel (well, ruins of) which dates from around 1000AD, and the castle itself was established around 1233AD.<br>

It was a shopping and driving day today. We went for a bit of an impromptu tour around the Bodmin Moor area (didn't see the beast unfortunately) and then went to a big department store called Trago Mills where I bought a big road map for when I get a job driving around Europe.<br><br>Not much else to report for today, but we did see a cool scooter with thousands of mirrors and a tail!<br>

... to catch 4 or 5! The nimal lovers reading this will be pleased to know that they were all sent back to the river from whence they came...and looked quite funny as they scuttled away sideways too.<br><br>There was a few very old buildings in Looe, including one which originally built in 1430! (see the Smugglers Cott photo). It was a nice relaxing day and as always it was good fun exploring a new town.<br>

For my next trip I was off to Cornwall in the South West for a week with my Nan, aunties Jeanette and Marion and uncle Roland. We stayed at Lakeview Villas, about a 5 minute drive out of Liskeard.<br><br>Today we drove down from London, and aside from a bit of a holdup at Bath, it was a smooth drive down.<br>

... all in all the visit was we worthwhile if only for the excitment it created for our future travels.<br><br>From there we headed back to Fowey, this time in the daylight for a late lunch. It is a quaint harbour town in a bay twined with a similarly pretty village on the other side of the inlet(name unknown). We spent an hour wandering through the little alleys and checking out the wee shops before making our way over the ruins of St Catherines castle on the headlands.<br>

... of £50/day (inc fuel) to allow us to travel for the next 6 months. <br><br>So, this flash place was not for us. We decided to continue forth up the road 15 min to a "Caravan Park"... quite literally a cow paddock where you could park your van. But a £3 the price was right and we were tired and could not be bothered searching any further. <br><br>Atleast there was a place ...

I have never driven Murvi before, but because of the huge amount of driving we have ahead of us, Dad has decided he will trust me to go behind the wheel of his precious campervan. Getting me on the insurance wasn't easy, because my occupation is considered a liability, but we succeeded in the end and I am now set to share the driving. Not only have I never driven such a huge vehicle before ...
