A dip in the sea.

Blackpool again today to pick up a shirt ordered for Harry.
It was a real pleasure to go today, the weather was perfect. After finishing my shopping I had a bit of time to spare & of course 365 in mind strolled down to the beach & caught these horses having a dip in the sea.
At first I thought they were the landau horses as they had little carts with them but in the end I was pretty sure they were gypsy horses.
They looked like they were loving the sea & I was pleased I managed to get the Tower in this picture too !!
There will be more pictures tomorrow I'm afraid, as too good to waste !

Beautiful Pat - love the tower in the back ground. Looks like a scene from a magical story. sorry I've been so slack in commenting. things are crazy down here - love that you still bother to stop by my site so regularly, and I look forward to seeing your footprints (comments). I'm on holidays for 2 weeks now, so hopefully I will be much better disciplined.

[Maggiemae]

The focus is so good in this picture, it inspires me to do better!
