The swing bridge was fun.

And came across this amazing competition about to be judged.

The little mermaids distant cousin.

Somewhere along a ley line.

Sundial.

Picture frame.

Quilted beach-loved this!

Seahorse.

Sand flies.

And the winner, Dip Me.

After a spiritual chat with a lady about stones it as back to base for an all you can eat couscous buffet!
