Beachcombing

As I have mentioned before, we are really lucky to live by the coast. We appreciate our location not only on those 40+ degree days in the middle of a scorching summer, but also over the cooler months. After a storm is a great time to head down there, all rugged up and on the look out for what has washed ashore.

The kiddoes love to wander looking through the seaweed while dodging the waves. It is amazing what you can see.



Something that really hit me this time was the amount of litter.




It really made me think about the Two Hands Project: two hands, 30 minutes, clean up yOUR world.

The skies opened and we quickly headed back to the car, but this long weekend I am planning on heading back down there with gloves and bags and spending 30 minutes cleaning up my beach.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Take care

    When I used to live by the beach I would take a bag with me on my morning walk each day. it is funny to watch peoples reaction. Some people look away embarrassed some pick up rubbish and bring it to you, some smile and nod and others congratulate you on doing a good job. Good luck

      I'll let you know what sort of reaction I get, Fiona. It should be interesting.
