Not been able to blog due to problems with the internet....
.....Thursday afternoon was beautiful so four of us went for a walk to the beach....
....due to high tides and Storm Emma a huge amount of sea weed was washed up on the beach and it was so thick it was like walking on a giant sponge...
...tide just coming in...
....love the sound of waves....
...a house on a hill overlooking the cove...
...limpets and lichen on the rocks....
....such wonderful patterns in the rocks...
....quite a variety of seaweed...
....blue sky, a hedge and woolly, very pregnant sheep!!
