Beach sunset

After a long day at the beach we went to get ice cream.
Even Milo had some :)

Then we went to explore

We were surrounded by mountains, it was so beautiful!

We stayed and watched the sun set








K played with Milo while the others played in the sea or fished

Camping day 2

So on our first full day of camping we got up early, went to she shops to get food for the day and then out to the beach!! We had glorious weather!
Kiki was the first one into the sea

Closely followed by Googs

The water was cold though :) Luckily it was a hot day and the kids warmed out quickly once they were dry

All four in the sea!

Milo collected seaweed


B went out to fish
Kiki collected starfish


Sandy nose!

Their collecting buckets were soon full

Starfish friends :)

Beach art while we warmed up
Champ found a prawn by crushing up barnacles and putting them on his hand, this little guy swan straight onto his hand

K found some mussels. B helped her collect enough mussels for us to cook over the fire. They were delicious!

Camping in Sunshine 1

Knowing that when living in England you have to make the most of the great weather when you have it, we had a spontaneous camping holiday! I lay in bed the night before looking at the weather report and then planning everything that we had to pack. Luckily Hubby was able to join us, we packed up the following morning and drove for 4 hours to our campsite.
We managed to get a great spot!
This was our private garden :)
Hubby got the food going as soon as we got the tent up.

Happily eating together
After food we were free to explore!


And we found huge sand dunes! We were trying to find the sea.
A sandy walk to the sea


We found it! The first time we've been to the sea for a few years.

The sun was going down so the light was gorgeous
We had the beach to ourselves


There were little jellyfish and starfish all over the beach

Not only was there miles of sand, there was also rocks for rock pooling too!


See how many shells and rocks Googs collected and carried in his pouch :)
Milo wasn't too sure of the sea though :)

We walked back to the tent just as the sun set.
