SEATON CAREW AND THE BLUE LAGOON 27 12 15

SEATON CAREW WAS PACKED AFTER 2 DAYS OF RAIN ... IT WAS A LOVELY DAY.
WE HAD KITE FLIERS, SURFERS, SAND CASTLE MAKERS, HORSES, DOGS AND PEOPLE AND MORE PEOPLE.
WHAT A COMPLETE CONTRAST TO YESTERDAY IN MANY WAYS.

THE SKY WAS ALL RAINED OUT, EVERYTHING WAS CLEAR, CLEAN AND ... BLUE!

STILL GLORIOUS WAVES ROLLING IN.

SPECTATORS WATCH THE FISHERMEN AT THE END OF THE NORTH GARE PIER AT THE MOUTH OF THE RIVER TEES.

WAVES AND SPRAY.

THE BLUE LAGOON AT THE NORTH SIDE OF THE RIVER TEES.

SEATON CAREW & THE BLUE LAGOON , BOXING DAY 2015.

IT WAS STILL RAINING,AFTER TWO DAYS.
PEOPLE STILL BRAVED THE BEACH,
THE DAY WAS MILD DESPITE THE RAIN,
THERE WAS HARDLY A BREEZE BUT THE SEA WAS ROUGH.

BLEAK DAY.

AFTER A WALK OVER ON THE CALMER BLUE LAGOON IT WAS BACK TO THE ROUGH SEA OF THE BAY.

ALL OF THE USUAL SUSPECTS ON A BEACH CLEAN.
THE GLASS AND POTTERY FINDS WERE TOO POOR TO ADD, IT WAS ALMOST HIGH TIDE AS WE LEFT THE BEACH...TWO WET DOGS AND A WET ME.
