Weekend in North Devon

Hi guys

I thought you might enjoy some pics of my beach weekend in North Devon.

We stayed in a little village called Croyde (about a 4.5 hour drive from London). It's a really cute little village with narrow winding roads tucked in by three foot hedges, lots of farms dotted with sheep and cows and gorgeous views of the ocean. Our holiday park was right on the coast and we were so lucky with the weather - not a cloud in the sky!

We spent all day Saturday sunbaking on the beach. It reached about 20 degrees (heat wave!) and we all got a little sunburnt. I even went swimming - my first dip in British seas since I've been here! The water was frozen - and I got straight out again - but it was lovely to soak up the sunshine and enjoy the beach. I didn't even mind the sand!

Makes me miss the coast in Sydney. But it's so nice to be able to brag about the sunshine and summertime here when it's cold at home!

Love Kel xx

no mum do you see any waves, the board is just a cardboard prop hired from the camp office for the photo shoot

Mart caught a few waves but had a wet suit on of course - almost everyone on the beach had one on!
