While on our trip we got to hike along the coast of the Irish Sea. Our group had to split up and stay in two different hostels in different towns. So we each got dropped off at the town we weren't staying in, and then had to hike 5 miles to our hostel. It was kind of long, but as you can see it was really beautiful. Luckily it wasn't raining. I kept thinking of the movie Tristan and Isolde the whole the time, cause it totally looked like it! And we were in Cornwall, so that reminded me of it too. The water was surprisingly blue. And we were lucky that the leaves were beginning to change.

This was our hostel. I was in the group that stayed in Tintagel. The others stayed in Boscastle. We had to hike an extra mile to our hostel. It was right there on a cliff overlooking the sea. There was no internet or telephone there. They work out their reservations through other people who just fax them the information every morning. 
On the walk to the hostel I passed this church and graveyard. The old graveyards here are so cool, with the old Celtic crosses. I took this photo of the church and the WWI memorial the evening we got to the hostel. The other pictures of the graveyard I took the next morning. There was a dense fog and it added to the ambiance of the cemetery.
Spooky!
