A Road Trip Around Cornwall, England   

ONLINE: A Zoom invitation link will be sent one day before class begins.

Hop on board and join Pat Butler for a road trip around the picturesque county of Cornwall. Situated on the southwesterly tip of the UK and enjoying an unusually mild climate, Cornwall has a plethora of interesting places to visit and fascinating tales to tell. We will visit quaint fishing villages, historic mining towns, medieval fortresses, and the famous Tintagel Castle where legend meets history. In addition to enjoying the stunning land and seascapes as we travel the county, we will also find time to stroll through the global gardens at the Eden Project, visit a seal sanctuary, appreciate artwork from around the world at the Tate, St. Ives, and so much more. Pat Butler was the Elderwise Administrator until retiring back to the UK in 2017. She is a Qualified Tour Guide for the National Trust's Living Back-to-Back History Museum in Birmingham, UK, and enjoys taking groups of visitors around this popular venue. Pat also enjoys presenting social history classes to members of Britain’s University of the Third Age.
