Picnic on the Prom.

We all fancied a day at the beach yesterday.  All that is except William, (he didn't feel up to it) and Trev who was in bed because he had been working nights.  The weather forecast wasn't good but we took a picnic anyway.

We all had plenty of layers of clothes on to keep warm.

The tide was in when we got there. 

We ate our picnic sitting on the promenade wall then set off for a bracing walk along the seafront.  We stopped for a coffee at a beachfront cafe and the boys had an ice-cream.  I know, it was hardly ice-cream weather, but when it comes to ice-cream who cares about the weather?

By the time we had walked back the tide had gone out and everybody could play on the sand.

Uncle Gary chased Charlie.  He was giggling like you wouldn't believe.  So was Charlie!

The boys played on the sand, in and out of the water.  By hometime George and Nicholas's jeans were wet through.  Luckily Victoria had thought to bring an extra set of clothes for them.  She knew they'd be needed.

As you can see it turned into a lovely day, breezy yes, but lovely all the same.   Also it was Mother's Day yesterday and what better way to spend it than with my girls and their boys. 

Thank you girls for my charm of a pressie, I love it!

I'm hoping next time we hit the beach it might be a bit warmer.

TTFN,

Kathleen.
