My favourite activity is seaglass hunting. I look for ages, until my eyes go funny from the concentration of searching for the smooth glass pieces amongst the pebbles. I would love to find beautiful pieces of driftwood but, as usual, there was none to be found. Today's measly driftwood hunt produced a miniature skateboard, one shoe insole and a plastic crate. I doubt I'll be creating any pieces of driftwood art from that lot!
My son's favourite activity is digging trenches in the sand with his Dad. They dig for hours making channels, pools and huge elaborate dams. Today's visit we were accompanied by my friend and her son so there was extra help on hand for digging duty. I let them get on with it; my husband is a structural engineer and my friend is an architect so you guarantee that it was a damn fine dam!
Oh I'm sorry the photos haven't come out at all how they were supposed to. I'll have to correct it when I'm on the laptop tomorrow. Bloomin Blogger app!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun day :) I love the beach but hardly ever go to any UK ones. When I'm abroad though I like to hunt sea glass too, I can lose hours just wandering up and down the shore!! Hope you've had a great Christmas - Happy New Year too! Jenny xx
ReplyDeleteI'm a fellow avid sea glass hunter and can spend entire days turning over pebbles and shells looking for pretty things (Goodwick Parrog is my most lucrative place). One day I'll work out what to do with the jars of treasure that adorn my kitchen windowsill. We have a fireplace full of driftwood too (West Dale) thanks to my husband.
