We were thinking of going down to Cheddar Gorge on Saturday but given the sickly children and good weather we decided a trip to the beach would be better.
We almost went to Weston-Super-Mud but decided to do something a little different and head to Brean way instead. We decided to go to the main beach however whilst driving there we found the area was inundated with people dressed as cowboys. Hundreds of them so we kept driving until we found a quiet beach. It worked out pretty well actually, you paid £3 to park all day on the beach and having the car next to you on the beach was really practical. We were gutted to find Dogs were allowed on this beach so we could have bought Poppy after all :( oh well we know for next time.
The beach itself was ok, like Weston the sea was so far away it didn't really feature in the beach experience for the majority of the day! The scenery was pretty though and it was sandy!
We set up camp and put up our sun tent which was super useful with Pebble. We all had lunch.
Daddy had bought everyone some dounuts from the shop and gave Pebble and Nemo one each!
Pebble was pretty happy after that!
First we made a fish (of course it had to have a smiley face!)
Of course our camp had to include sticks, because they're boys!
Nemo getting us to work!
Nemo got burried...
Then Mummy... (A familiar sight!)
Then Daddy! (I wanted him to have the pregnancy experience!)
As it became late afternoon the sea eventually came high enough so that with a bit of a trek we could get there.
It was time for Pebble to have her first paddle in the sea
The water was just so mucky! But the kids had a great time!
Because I plastered the children in sun cream twice whilst we were there they had so much sand stuck to them it felt like we brought half of the beach home with us. Needless to say there was a lot of sand left at the bottom of our bathtub!
