From Portsmouth we booked our giant journey across west to Plymouth, a small stop over before continuing over to St. Ives again.
Unfortunately there were track works that day and the fact that we had decided to buy the cheaper tickets meant that we had to endure a 7 hour journey of trains and buses!
It wasn't the loveliest experience, and the "Scenic" route we were promised was blurred by drizzle and dark night…
We checked in late to our backpackers hostel, remarkably next to an Adventist church (the first we’ve seen since Cooranbong!), and we crashed.
The next day we had one agenda: HARRY POTTER! We just had to get to a cinema quick. Not only had we read all the books this trip, we had watched the first 6 movies twice on the laptop. Now we were eager to have our first cinema experience in 8 months and for it to be Harry Potter and the deathly hallows! Lame, we know…
