Approximately three weeks ago, me, my girlfriend and her family went on holiday for about 5 days. As usual, with everyone I am sure, we had to go through some military style planning to make sure we ( meaning I as I am the most forgetfull!) packed everything and had everything done.
Eventually we were on our way, and starting our 4 hour journey to the far west of the UK. Great journey apart the occasional idiot trying to either race us or run us of the road.
But as soon as I got to the sea, the view, fresh air and quietness of it made it all worthwhile!! We had arrived and it was deserted - but better than that - it was sunny!!!!
For the next 4-5 days, we spent a lot of our time going for nice long walks along the clifftop and the beach - and the rest relaxing somewhere sunny!!
During this holiday, I must have lost like 2-3 pounds in weight, purely through walking that much ( also hurt my back somehow it appears but ah well ) But more importantly, it was great to forget the pressures of life for those few days, and act like a big kid splashing around in the sea!
I even had this little "mini" adventure! The only place I could get a phone/internet signal was on the very top of the cliff. So I would get up early, run up the cliff, get the messages, then run back down, jump over a stream run up the sand dunes and to the shop to get a newspaper!!
Without going on for too much more, it was a great time - Pictures being updated soon!! - but more importantly, it serves a purpose
There is always space in life to have those moments to act like a big kid and have silly fun - It really refreshed me and can't wait till the next one!!
Wishing you a great day!!
