Happy Birthday James & Grandma

Last Sunday, all the assorted Greens and Peacocks (and hangers-on) met up in Emmer Green to have a birthday tea for James and Grandma (whose birthdays are on consecutive days). We love this one (especially of Kezia).

Cakey face!

Kezia was very keen on the fairy cakes for pudding. Thanks to Joe and family for these two pictures, which we nicked from their blog. Our own camera is on the blink (again!!)

A Week in Wales - wet & windy, steep & hilly, warm & sunny, fun & friendly - it was brilliant

Eek! Look out!

The whole beach to play on, and yet the number of times Kezia managed to almost tread on this dead jellyfish was quite amazing.

Our spot for a day at the beach (...not QUITE sure what Kezia has spotted behind the windbreak!)

This photo makes the beach look tiny and bleak; it was quite the opposite - it was huge, flat, sandy, ideal for pottering about on (we just didn't manage to get any of it in the picture).

Off to explore another corner of the beach with Grandad

Bosherston Lily Ponds

One day when it wasn't quite beach weather, we went out for the day to Bosherston Lily Ponds about 15 miles from Saundersfoot - it was beautiful.



The whole route round, along the banks of the lily ponds to the beach and back up to the tea rooms in the village, was about 3 miles, and it was a really nice walk - it even stayed dry most of the way!



The two intrepid explorers set off across the dunes (just as it started to rain!) - it was hard going - well, it was for one of us anyway.

One last one of Bosherston (before we headed off for the ace tea rooms) - I love this photo - rain is ace.
