Llandudno sundowners

Probably my favourite beach in the whole world, I always love coming here to watch the sunset.  It was as beautiful as ever.  We also had an invigorating dip in the ocean.

It looked like it would rain but it held off. Nothing beats sunset at Llandudno even on a cloudy evening. A great way to say farewell to Russel, Lisa and The Herds.  

Beach Crawl

After climbing Lions Head with Antony and Matt, Chrisèl and I did a tour of some of Cape Town's most beautiful beaches before joining the family on Llandudno Beach for Sam's 14th birthday party.

Highlights of our beach crawl included ...

• A stunning warm day, perfect for walks along the beach and a dip in the ocean.
• Walking down to Clifton's 3rd beach for a sit down.
• Moving onto Camps Bay for an invigorating swim and delicious ice cream (once we eventually managed to find parking!)  The water was brisk to say the least!
• Heading onto Hout Bay for a walk along the beach in the lovely late afternoon light.  
• Bumping into Heather, Russell's mum, on the beach and having a bit of a catch up.
• Watching the frolicking dogs on the beach, all having a ball.
• Going to Woolies where we bought some delicious salads to take on with us to Llandudno.
• Meeting the family on Llandudno just in time for a spectacular sunset. They're always so beautiful here. Of course, we took lots of silhouette shots, which came out great.
• Meeting Sam's 3 friends (she'd decided to opt for an intimate party this year).
• Sam and friends stripping down to their costumes despite the cool temperature and having a splash and paddle in the freezing ocean with much shrieking and laughing.
• A lovely picnic of salad and pizza on the beach by candle light.
