Portscatho
Wednesday 27th July 2016
Showed Erika some places from my childhood holidays - had lunch at the Boathouse restaurant which, in a former incarnation as Captain Cook's we'd eaten at something like 30 years ago. Also took Erika to the famous little beach outside Portscatho where me and Adrian had buried Dad's shoes (only ever to recover one of them). In the evening Dad did a Barbecue back at the house.
