A day at Sidmouth

A great day at Sidmouth where we met up with Simo and Claudia.  Weather was a bit too wild for us to goo in the sea.  Then to the caravan for tea and scones.

25th July

Windy all day. Spent the day huddled in the beach tent at Branscombe Bay - we loved it. In the evening we watched kite surfers wrestle with the winds to catch some speed. The beached kites on the sand looked like downed Pterodactyls, their spars silhouetted against a sunlit thundery sky.

A Devonian Break.

Arrived last Thursday for a two week break in the caravan in Exmouth.  Weather has been great but very windy. I've been out on the new ISUP everyday - trying to improve my balance which has taken a big hit after my knee op and arthritis in the big toe, which means I'm not as confident as I used to be, but I'm working on it.

Sha's been on the new board and loves it - even said we need to get another. A thumbs from me for that one.  Mollie and Emily came down for the weekend which was lovely. 

Day 7 Still going out on the water using both new and old boards - practicing my skills. Tail turns, reverse turns - wobbly man!!

Loving it here - sun shinning.

MTB in the rain.

A wet and muddy blast last night on the MTB. Up Sandy Lane, round to the back and over the of Leckhampton Hill, down the Tram Way and home. I loved it.
