Sometimes I think it's easy to take for granted just how amazing our local area is. We're really lucky being situated on the South Coast, surrounded by inner cities, countryside, the gorgeous Moors, and of course more beaches than you could imagine down through Cornwall and up into North Devon.
We decided to have a wintery adventure, seeing as the sun was out and the pup needed a good run. We headed to Seaton beach in Cornwall - somewhere many of our friends always recommend, as well as other dog owners. We hadn't taken pup to the beach before - we usually head to Dartmoor and let him explore for hours, have a swim in the rivers and make friends with the Dartmoor ponies. But we fancied a change. We love the beach, and I think it's much more exciting to visit the seaside during winter, donned in big coats, hats, gloves and wellies. It was one of those scarf and sunglasses sort of days.
Well, after a wrong turn and getting wedged on the steepest hill ever, we finally made it to the beach. It was a beautiful afternoon watching the sun set, watching the dog bounding through the incoming waves, submarining his face under the white wash, and digging holes in the sand. This is exactly what we needed this week.
