Last weekend we packed our bags and headed off to the East Coast..our second home
of Bicheno..the weather was rather ordinary but it didn't dampen our spirits too much
and the girls even managed to get some swimming in at the River..the same one I
played in many times as a child and almost drowned in when I was 9..I didn't learn
how to swim until I was 10, having a fear of water and still don't like putting my
head in the water...my two are very capable swimmers thankfully so I could relax
and make the most of taking lots of pics...
Jem's becoming quite the little poser lately...come anywhere near her with a camera
and you'll be granted with a big cheesy grin!
when I wasn't taking photos I had a play with some river stones..
and followed some little fish under the bridge..
on the way home we stopped at Spiky Bridge near Swansea. It was built by convicts
in the 1840s as part of the old coach road between Swansea and Little Swanport
the jagged dolerite stones set in concrete on the parapet..so dramatic..
..and just south of the bridge is one of the prettiest stretches of coastline..I've
always loved the colour of the water..even in the rain it's beautiful :)
thanks so much for visiting..and for all the sweet comments left in the last post..
I'm very grateful! I hope you have a great week Gxox
