Time to head back to Launceston today! Schouten House is a bed and breakfast, so after a less than good sleep, we prepared ourselves for the day and braved the stairs to the guest dining room. This is directly opposite the guest lounge room, just inside the front entrance hall.
Breakfast was DELICIOUS! Baked oatmeal with poached apples, yoghurt and honey , followed by a Sarnie, a Scottish breakfast bap filled with Bacon, mushrooms, spinach, cheese and egg, topped off with home made chutney. Brewed coffee and home made bread toasted with homemade strawberry jam...yummy. TRO had bacon and eggs in place of the Sarnie.
We packed up and set off again, this time visiting the anchor memorial that commemorates the sinking of the Resolution.
So sad to think of a Mum and Dad losing all their six children, but such resilience to press on with life and have another five. It’s not that far from Swansea to Launceston, and we were here by around midday. Julie and Blair gave us a warm welcome, and a delicious soup and toast lunch. we spent a nice quiet and relaxing afternoon afternoon , watching football and reading, chatting etc.
