Easter at Inverloch


The beaches at Inverloch are lovely! Most days while staying here, we’ve been walking, sand-castle-building and generally playing on the beach. Sophie says that the sand tastes just as good at British sand does. There were a few rainy days at the beginning of the week, so William and Sophie don't look dressed very differently than they were on Cornish beaches in February.




The main Inverloch surf beach was 100 yards from the house we were staying in. It was patrolled, so we swam between the flags (you can see the life guards dressed in red and yellow). The water was lovely, and Andrew would like me to point out that the temperature was the same as that in Bournemouth in the Summer.



The local primary school had a school fete on Saturday, where William had fun on a bouncy castle, feeding and folding some animals (which he held ever so carefully) and exploring the cabin of a fire engine, all while Sophie slept. Jo enjoyed some shopping at the local market (great success shopping for clothes!), and we had had a nice walk along the coast in the afternoon, during which we picked up some dropping shea oak cones, watched crabs being caught from a bridge and climbed a great tree.
