Spring bank hols 2013 we managed our first family holiday in four years. For the first time we weren't moving or pregnant and we managed to scrape together the pennies for a lovely week at the seaside. Ladies and gentlemen welcome to Sandsend ...
Certainly the place to be seen this summer, we are pretty sure Mary Portas was also in residence!
Here was our cottage ...
And the view, oh that view...
The weather was gorgeous for most of the week and early mornings I'd open that door and lay on the sofa sipping my cuppa and listening the the roar of the waves. I would so love to live right on the beach one day, well I can dream!
The week was filled will little boy centred activities, such as creating beach creations with a load of washed up bamboo...
And the more traditional castles ...
Wearing our comically over sized sun hats ...
Spotting the vintage buses, what a beauty ...
Failed attempts to do crab catching ...
Amassing large fossil collections ...
We took trips to Staithes, Robin Hoods Bay and a couple of jaunts into Whitby ...
Including one with Nana where we partook of refreshments at Sherlocks tea rooms ...
We found a converted park "boat", which was perfect for pirate games
...
And overall we had lots of fun. We grown ups slept like logs (sea air!) and there were lots of laughs and lovely memories to keep forever ...
Start the saving for next year!
