Sun, Sea and Sanitizer

 Who doesn't love taking a vacation.  Ah, living the dream in a villa in Mallorca.

But, unfortunately, this year the annual family vacation was not on the cards thanks to COVID-19.

However, there's beauty to be found on the doorstep and this week England was hit by a 'Saharan blowtorch' and the south coast sizzled in a heatwave so we dug out the swimsuits and headed off to the beach.


Other Staycationers also flocked to the beach to enjoy the hot weather and there is only so much space on Britain's beaches at the best of times.  With a summer of staycations the challenge is finding space on Bournemouth's beautiful beach.  Fortunately, being local we know about some lesser known spots and we were able to social distance.  


Perhaps the saving grace of this annus horribilis has been the weather - unseasonably blissful in those first disquieting weeks of lockdown and reliably warm ever since.
