Brew with a view.

Out and about in the van at the weekend. Brean Sands always makes me think of miles of static caravan parks and amusement arcades. If you keep going past all of this to the end at Brean Down, there is a scene of peace and tranquility. For 3.50 you can park (at your own risk) on the sands. It was a warm day so we thought it might be busy. But no. Plenty of space between us and fellow humans. No road noise,just the sound of the tide and a few circling gulls. The tide seems  to go out for miles but if you stay around it comes back in again faster than a galloping horse. Apparently the water quality is good if you want a dip at high tide. The sandy brown colour is just what it is. Sand. It was a joy to feel sand beneath my feet, blue skies and good fresh air. We didn’t need to buy lunch. It was our own little beach cafe.

It was a long Winter of staying indoors. This was worth waiting for.
