Heatwave!!

The weather has been hotter than it has been in several years which means if you if you have a small child this is the BEST summer of their whole little lives! It is certainly turning out to be one of the best I've ever had, I can remember heatwaves but I didn't live by the sea side when I was little so now I am reliving my beachless youth!
Although thunderstorms have hit most of the country, we have been mostly protected here in Looe and the beach is being enjoyed by holiday makers from all over the British Isles.
There is so much fun to be had on the beach, it's not just sandcastles and paddling, Looe has a bouncy castle and giant slide for the kids, you will see people playing all the usual outdoor games like Frisbee, Cricket, and flying Kites but you will also find some of the older traditional games like Quoits and Boules still very much alive down here! The beach is also a perfect place to practice your Juggling or Diabolo skills, and the sea makes it a safe place for Fire Poi or Staffs
(That's my husband that is!)

I have been helping with the sandcastle building because I found a chip cone on the beach and used it to make pointy tops on the towers, that made me very popular with the girls and now I'm not allowed to sunbathe until I have finished a princess castle before the tide comes in! I am planning a giant sand sculpture soon, just need to decide what to make.........any ideas?
