Plymouth to Tintagel

Woke up at 6:30 a.m. to heavy fog, mist, and a light rain. Went to breakfast early and didn't care for the eggs again. Had some bread, cereal, and juice. Still had about an hour before leaving, so I went back to my room to download pictures to my travel blog. We left from the front of the hotel right at 8:30 a.m. and got stuck in the traffic jam to Cornwall County (Plymouth is in Devon County) for about 10 minutes. We made our first stop at 9:40 in Bodmin Moor at the Jamaica Inn for about 40 minutes. It is the place known for romance and smuggling made famous by author, Daphne du Maurier. (She wrote the novel, Rebecca.) It was a dump! By now it was not only foggy, misty, and cold, it was also raining. While driving through the town of Bodmin (50,000 people), Dylan stated that there would be a “Guess the mileage” contest tomorrow after leaving Stonehenge. That should be easy for me since Mapquest calculates the miles for you as well as my travel blog.
