From Plymouth to St Ives

I was planning to go to the Eden Project today but decided to explore Plymouth instead. The Hoe was breathtaking. The Plymouth Dome, situated on The Hoe, has a good exhibition about Plymouth. It tells about the sailors of previous times who started their journey from Plymouth and of how Plymouth was built up again after being blitzed during the world war. I also learnt that the word “Tory” was first given to the group of people (criminals) sent from England to colonize New Zealand in the mid 1600s. Then, another two hour journey to St Ives. Arrived at the holiday village at around 7pm and was too tired to do anything else. Cooked dinner and straight to bed.
