Still
very stormy here. After dropping the car off for it's MOT I thought I'd
have a walk to the beach to see what it looked like after all this
stormy weather. Well when I got there it looked so tempting with the
blue sky and big, foaming waves that I
thought I might as well have a short walk as I have no guests to see
to!! The short walk ended up becoming an elongated one! First I thought
I'd walk to Deganwy then at Deganwy I continued to Conwy. It was a bit
of a battle at times but so refreshing and exfoliating! ( still have
sand in my hair and eyes). When I got to Conwy and looked back out
towards the sea I could see that the lovely blue sky was fast
disappearing and being replaced by rather ominous looking greyness. Good
job I had my waterproof trousers with me.. I headed back and came
across people trying to heave an escaped boat out of the water. They
were being monitored and helped by the crew of the small inshore
lifeboat. I did ask if they wanted help but as they'd just turned down
the help of a big six foot man I didn't feel insulted! After a much
needed pit stop at Deganwy ( I tried out the new cafe called The Tea
Station )I set off on the last part of the walk home. The tide had come
in even further to the extent that it was throwing pebbles up and over
the path. In the end I had to make a run for it and luckily didn't get
caught in all the spray. You'll see from the photos just how much
conditions changed while I was on my walk. Perfect timing the car was
ready to pick up on my way back and even better didn't need any money
spending on it.
