Although it looked a lot less sunny, it was still very warm indeed. So Mum, Dad, The Boy, Granny and D went to Daymer Bay.
Daymer Bay, not quite as nice as Constantine but still very nice. The Family thought it might rain but although there were a few rumbles of thunder it stayed dry.
The rock pools were teeming with life. It reminded Mum of a David Bellamy book about rock pools that she once had as a child. She had always looked in pools for things like this but had never seen them. Until now!
Ananananenome.
Barnacles and mussels.
Here's Dad, moving the seaweed to see if there was anything interesting underneath.
The Boy used his beach shoes a lot on this holiday.
The buckets filled up with interesting creatures and pretty shells.
The Boy found this very strange beastie clinging to a rock. They didn't know what it was!
Mum found this very angry crab. She nearly found him with her bare feet and squealed a bit. It had such a temper!
Mum checking her net for life. Hmmm what's this?
Mum got a pretty orange crab. It was a happy crab and Mum finally plucked up the courage to hold it. She had always wanted to hold a crab! Yay!
The Family went home to catch up with Auntie A, Thom and Baby G. They changed and went down to the Mariner's in Rock for dinner. Poor D stayed at Tamarisk as he was suffering with the same illness as The Boy had the night before.....he had had the same flavour ice cream!
