It has to be said ... the British Seaside town at the end of February can sometimes be a tad bleak and dreary, bordering on depressing and dead. Not so this place last Thursday afternoon.
That's Mr PotterJotter with eldest daughter and youngest son looking out over the sunlit sea to the horizon. It was bright, breezy and bracing.
The whole promenade was dotted with interesting little art installations - all part of the Tern Project - for more info click here.
The perfect long stroll in glorious sunshine, with lots of interesting things to look at along the way.
And to top it off, afternoon tea was taken at the wonderfully restored, art deco Midland Hotel right on the seafront at Morecambe. I forgot to take a pic of that, though you can read about its renovation if you google it.
All part of a flying visit to see student number one at her University in the North West.
Bring me Sunshine? No problem.
Is it sunny where you are today?

Today has been foul but on Thursday we sat on the Brighton pebbles, ate our snadwiches and played with our new camera. Bring me sunshine tomorrow and the day after too please....

Hi Catherine, thanks for popping by my blog and for your lovely comment! I love your seaside photos, especially the one with all the boats...sounds like you had a lovely day! Sarah x
ReplyDeleteOh a gorgeous and cheering post. I love the seaside in February or any month,sunshine or rain. We used to live in Broadstairs, I used to love walking the beach during a storm. Shropshire is, sadly, as inland as you can get, but it makes up for it with its hills and beauty.
ReplyDeleteAmazing art work and lovely lovely sunshine.
ReplyDeleteOoo it was lovely to be transported to the seaside with you =]

ReplyDeleteAhhh nothing like the British seaside - makes me want to hop in the car and drive down to Brighton...
