Funny aren't they <b>Laney</b>? LOL<br /><br />Oh yes <b>Mrs Nesbitt</b> we're only about an hour or so from the coast - great for the children. :)<br /><br />It was a great day out <b>Quilly</b>, the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. :)<br /><br />You know we visited Scarborough and Robin Hood's Bay a while back <b>Dumdad</b> - lovely places. Of course the children all dropped their food in the sand at some point! LOL<br /><br />I'm so pleased you enjoyed our little trip <b>Dave</b>. Go get that ice-cream my friend. x<br /><br />LOL we used my son's people carrier for the trip <b>Buff</b> and warned him when we got back that it was full of sand - I imagine he's still finding it! <br /><br />Southport is much nicer than Blackpool <b>Tony</b> especially as the 'attractions' are further away from the beach - means the grandchildren are content to stay on the beach because they can't see them! LOL<br /><br /><br />The grandchildren are our greatest joy <b>Deb</b> and it's just magical to spend days like this with them. :)<br /><br /><br />Indeed it was <b>Bee</b>! :)<br /><br /><br />Nice to see you <b>Teach</b>. Yes it was a wonderful day. :)<br /><br /><br />Yes it was <b>Mama Zen</b> :)<br /><br /><br />Parking on the beach is so convenient <b>SAW</b> especially when you have as much paraphernalia as we had! It was warm enough to let the children play but not warm enough to strip off!<br /><br /><br />The bucket of sand was funny <b>Pam</b>, well only because it didn't happen to me. ;) I hope the grandchildren have happy memories of the trip. <br /><br /><br />I like that photo too <b>Julia</b>!<br /><br /><br />I wish I'd got a picture of the sand dump too <b>Daryl</b>! LOL<br /><br />Kerala looks so magical <b>Bindi</b>, I would love to visit some day. x<br /><br />I'm happy this brought back good memories for you <b>Ron</b> - I too have great memories of going to the beach with my parents during the summer - riding on the donkeys, ice-cream and building sandcastles. :)<br /><br />Thanks <b>CheffieMom</b> :)<br /><br />It was fun <b>Raven</b>. I hope you can get back to the beach sometime soon m'dear. x<br /><br />I'm sure your grandchildren will enjoy the pool as much as they would the beach <b>Dr. John</b> - have a great day my friend. :)Akelamaluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11234268568845148285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1922338030834754301.post-53271024700477052002009-08-10T23:41:41.895+01:002009-08-10T23:41:41.895+01:00That looks like a great day.
