I Love the Beach

Balmy Day On the Beach

By: Orangetas
Written on May 8th, 2008

It was very hot yesterday so a friend and I took our dogs to the beach. The tide was out but we played ball with the dogs and got covered in mud.

We rinsed the mud off in a warm pool and then went for icecream and tea at a cafe on a cliff overlooking the beach.

    I meant to also say that the day you described sounds absolutely perfect in every way. No wonder you smile!

    I am late in getting here! Have you been to the US yet? If you are still planning, I want you to come see me! I make a good cup of tea and will make you a scone with jam and clotted cream, too ;-)

    Yes .. its blooming true!

    I hadnt thought of it like that .. but yes it seems that everything has its price now.

    Even parks that used to be free around here are now charging for entry .. they say it is to pay for the upkeep.etc

    Yes .. but very expensive little cafe (I seem to remember icecream and cheesecake was about £5) .. and rather nerve wracking so high up .. a stong gust of wind and we would have been flying .. !!

    just returned from another great afternoon on the beach. The tide was in this time so paddled and threw a ball in the sea for my dog.

    Messing around on the beach must be the best way of relaxing ever.

    It is well over an hour drive to beach but well worth it every time.
