my future home + merlin's cave.

day two was one for the books! our first stop was St Michael's Mount. Basically it's a castle on an island. It also basically has it's own community {and up until a few years ago, it's own school} and the workers live on the island! It was amazing! Another perk... the family that still lives there have two sons in their early 20s. Convenient. hence the reason it's my future home. Forget Prince Harry. {joking about all of the above. except wanting to live at the castle. seriously the greatest views}

walking out to the Mount. during high tide you have to take a boat.

Next we headed to Tintagel castle. Number one thing I learned on this trip: they never told us how much we hike. yes we were warned about the walking but holy camoli we hiked hundreds of stairs {not an exaggeration} on this trip. Tintagel was the greatest place I've been on Earth. well, there's a lot of cool places, but you know what I mean. The history behind it is amazing and it was believed to be the the place of King Arthur's birth! Yep. Definitely super awesome. The views were spectacular.

look at those stairs...

the view!

Then we headed down the mountain to... MERLIN'S CAVE! yep. rumored to be merlin the {some sort of magic person but I can't actually remember}

And there you have it... day 2 was magnificent!
