Hunstanton: English Seaside revisited

Tim and Anne's school, St. Albans, went on a field trip yesterday to the resort town of Hunstanton, Norfolk, on the English seaside. I went on the trip as well, as a parent chaperone.

We were at Old Hunstanton beach, which abutts some very interesting cliffs, and is dotted with sand dunes.

It was simply a gorgeous day: quite warm, but with a blissfully cool breeze coming across the sea. If you looked carefully, you could see the North Sea wind farm a bit out to sea, so it's obviously generally windy there.

The year 2's and year 4's seemed to have a really good time. Digging in the dirt, or wet sand, was obviously a popular activity!

We'll be hitting the shores in Crete (Greece) at the end of July. We're looking forward to seeing how the beaches compare!
