The ferry ride is always gorgeous ...
......
And I L.O.V.E the flowers over there. I've taken notes for possibly including in my garden next year!

Salads-in-a-jar for our picnic lunch on the sand...

'I went down to the shouting sea,
Taking Christopher down with me,
For Nurse had given us sixpence each--
And down we went to the beach.
'We had sand in the eyes and the ears and the nose,
And sand in the hair, and sand-between-the-toes.
Whenever a good nor' wester blows,
Christopher is certain of
Sand -between-the-toes.
'The sea was galloping grey and white;
Christopher clutched his sixpence tight;
We clambered over the humping sand--
And Christopher held my hand.
'We had sand in the eyes and the ears and the nose,
And sand in the hair, and sand-between-the-toes.
Whenever a good nor' wester blows,
Christopher is certain of
Sand -between-the-toes.
'There was a roaring in the sky;
The sea-gulls cried as they blew by;
We tried to talk, but had to shout--
Nobody else was out.
'When we got home, we had sand in the hair,
In the eyes and the ears and everywhere;
Whenever a good nor' wester blows,
Christopher is found with
Sand-between-the-toes.'
~ When We Were Very Young, by A. A. Milne
