Sunshine at Last!

Finally, and for one day only, the sun came out. It was a bright and vibrant day, so we quickly decided that the only place to go to was the seaside. It had to be West Wittering, on my favourite top 5 beaches in the UK.  As we neared the turnoff for the beach road, the traffic stopped, it must be road works or someone broken down, we thought. But no, it was a queue for the beach. Clearly we weren’t the only ones with this idea. The car park was packed!

The whole world and his dog was there.  We slid through the mud to the beach.

People were preparing barbecues. Dogs were on parade.

The sea was choppy and glorious

Poppy got straight to work, dealing with pebbles 

Lunch was well underway by the time we arrived. 

The flooded beach huts provided some good water activities for those unable to face a dip in the sea.

This little dog was taking herself for a sedate walk. Not what dogs usually do at the seaside

The odd tent had been pitched

Poppy and her Daddy had lots of fun

As did the several dozen dogs we saw.

A flying spaniel

Flying children

Dogs on leads

A Gliding Retriever

Perfect kite weather

Not sure if this is a dog or a flying cat

Man on John, Man on!

Where did that Poppy go? There she is!

Some babies were just too young to be allowed free run of the beach

All too soon the sun dropped and it was time to go home

What a perfect day we all had!

Come on Poppy, or we’ll miss the In Night Garden xxxxxx
