Long Weekend







 Sunny Monday, especially appropriate after the miserable weather that we have been having in Wales. Collection of the IOS fix base from West Wales was today proved to be especially good for the timing as the sun came out, we were near the beach, it was special.



Bury Port is usually a boaring little town with nothing going for it, however get the sun out an at low tide the sand stretches for miles. The lighthouse with its white walls and red hat stands out proudly alongside the golden sand that just screamed out for Sarah an I to walk across. The danger sign of rushing tides and soggy quick sand was forgotten as we set out across the Sahara like expanse of lovely yellow sand. A coffee to energise us (Sarah's was decaf) and the walk to the waters edge didn't feel very far at all. A lovely stroll through the ankle deep warm water (yeah crazy, who'd have thought that the water would be warm) and we headed back for some fish and chips.

It seemed that every man and his dog was wanting to have some fish and chips, the poor girls behind the counter didn't know what hit them. Fish and chips in hand, we headed back to the beach to each them on the sea shore. A lovely day with Sarah and myself. The only downer was that we had to leave the dog at home.
