‘Seaton celebrates’ was a big success!
The sand pies were quite big too (and happy!)
A certain lady was hard at work on the sand sculpture
And there were a few other crowd pleasers too!
I loved these ladies so much! Maybe a new Gravatar?
Meanwhile my t’ai chi group ‘worked the beach’
And there was all the usual ‘fun of the fair’
These were my daughter’s favourites when she was small
There were ‘goodies’
And craft stalls galore!
And it was great weather for kites!
Just look what this little girl got to take home on the bus!
All in all, a good day! The sun shone gently down. Mike led the t’ai chi group into the water and my ‘crops’ got soaked! A good time was had by all. Just one omission! I forgot to go back for a ‘finished’ photo of the sand sculpture. It must have been the lure of the icecream.
Have a happy weekend, won’t you, and don’t forget to visit Cate at Show My Face. You only need six words!

Oh, Jo, I wish I could have been there with you; it all looks like such fun. A gorgeous picture of you! Not just because you are elegantly lovely, but because you look very content. I realized I might be able to save this photo of you and begin a photo file of my blogging buddy “portraits” then scroll them for screen saver.
If I can figure all that out, I’ll have a delightful way to “see” many of you every day!

I wasn’t too sure what to expect, Jude, but there was lots going on and a good turnout.
I went to some gardens you would highly approve of this afternoon. Didn’t intend going there initially but I enjoyed them. I’m sure they’ll turn up on here at some point 🙂

He did! He wanted to do some ‘pushing hands’, Ann and you have a firmer base in damp sand (or even wet water 🙂 )
