We decided thast we needed to get away and feel some sand between our toes, so we caught the train South on Friday afternoon, for two nights in a bungalow by the beach.
The brochure failed to mention that we would be metres away from a cemetery. We decided it was life-affirming.
In the morning a team of arborists cut down 3 trees behind our bungalor with chainsaws. Then put them through a giant chipper. We were up anyway.
Still, we lazed in our bunks and drank cups of tea inbetween running to the amenities block between light rain.
It cleared up and we wandered down for a swim and cooked a Breakfast of Champions.
with a great view.
Walking to the local town I picked flowers and found a sweet craft store and awesome organic store too.
We read the weekend paper in a cafe,
found a little thai massage place, and indulged (AWESOME).
On the way back, I looked in the cemetery. I find them fascinating, I really do,
and found this cemetery bunny.
Then it was back to the beach
before a delicious dinner.
In the morning we saw a one-legged seagull
and made french toast with leftover bread, with fruit and yoghurt. Then it was packing time to catch the train home again.
I hope your weekend was lovely too!
ps. with Sue II ready to go, I'll post soon about crafty-goings-on!
