At the beach

August and finally long awaited summer holidays with my friends from Germany. They arrived by ferry first thing in the morning to glorious sunshine - for a change! So we spent a wonderful day at the beach in Seaton Sluice trying not to get sunburn...my friend and her younger daughter attempting to fly their kite.

Best viewed large if you have the time.
