Weston-super-Mare
Somerset, England
December 28, 2006
Instead of digging our way out of yet another Colorado blizzard (yikes), Mike and I spent yesterday strolling along the beach on a lovely, sunny day here in England. Mike’s good friend, Howard, lives in Weston-super-Mare, a town on the waterfront, near Bristol. (“Super mare” in Latin means “on the sea.”) We went there yesterday to visit him, but first we took a sunset stroll on the beach.
Just by chance, it happened to be the only sunny and mild day we’ve had in a week, so it turned out to be a perfect day for a waterfront walk. I brought my trusty little point-and-shoot, and got some great pictures with it.

Beautiful!
And I wanted to let you know that we are going to be ringing in the new year with you–on England time!
Whoa, really? Are you going to be in England? Or do you just not feel like staying up late that night?
Amazing photos!
I wish I were there, I’m so tired of the snow.
Much nicer weather than here!
Nice photos, as always.
Yeah, you are missing out on round two and it’s just crazy. Hope you two hired someone to care for the house and hopefully they will shovel for you.
Enjoy the rest of your vacation.
I love the one of the older couple!
We figure midnight is a wee bit late to keep 3 year olds up for…so we’re going to do a countdown earlier.
Fair enough! I’ll toast to you at midnight.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Weston… see that lovely beach? Once a year they have a manic bike race on it!
Hehehe.
as always, fantastic!
What a beach!
Ally must be jealous! She’d love running all up and down that shoreline!
