The first signs of the sun, the first drops of rain and footsteps on sand all happened at around the same time.

Sunrise from the van as they set off.
Sunrise seekers.
Beach Buoy and Another Dog headed south.
The view back north.
South.
The lady who walks the length of the beach did so.
Team One Black Ear were heading back north.
They paused to chat.
Maybe fittingly with a back (one ear) and white, Hugo's owner is a Newcastle United supporter.
We all know that there is only ONE United

As they chatted Team Muzzled Dog passed by.
"Morning." here, there and everywhere. The dogs all greeted one another.

A man with a small dog went ahead south, walking by the sea.
He went to sit with a coffee on the beach below just below Stubborn Dog Stack.

Half way up or half way down, a couple sat drinking coffee
"Morning."
"Morning."
"Morning."
They walked the "easy" route.
"Morning Mate."

Beach Buoy sat on a well-worn plank with plenty of rust.
He watched the sea.
He wished that he had brought a coffee.
"See you mate."
In the distance, two fishermen try their luck on the grey rocks.
The big slope.
The coffee couple had gone.
Slow walk back.
Gull surfing the wave tops.
Mr Gunn/Lunn and excellent dog Alfie approached from the north.
They chatted.
They went their separate ways.

The car park is partially beach.
Water's edge.
