Well Hiro and I managed to find our way to Minehead without too much mishap! We made our way to Porlock, set up camp and then decided to get food and stuff in preparation for our adventure.
We went into Minehead and visited the Tourist Information Centre who were very helpful in providing bus timetables and advice for our first few days. We also managed to get the first 4 path guides to set us up for a clar outline of where to go.
We then went to the local supermarket and stocked up on dog food etc.
Our final mission for our visit to Mindhead was to find the start of the SWCP which was at the far end of the town and gave us our first idea of what this adventure meant. There was a large hill that was going to be our first challenge the next day.
At the campsite we talked to our neighbours who advised that the wind comes in all directions so there was no best way to point the tent. I was invited to join them for a drink and in the ensuing conversation I discovered that the site had many regulars to the site and that this bode well in terms of it being a nice place to be. Long may it continue!
