Sandy Bay

Nick finished his sermon prep early today, which left him free to join us for an excursion. Since he was driving, we went to Sandy Bay (I won’t drive those roads myself!). We had a bit of a picnic as usual, but after pouring tea and making sandwiches, we were rained out. We quickly got things into a deserted corrugated tin shanty nearby, after unsuccessfully setting up a makeshift cover with the picnic blanket. But after a few minutes the rain stopped and we could carry on what we had been doing. We rolled up our pants and walked in the black sand, and felt the cold Atlantic water. Sandy Bay is one of the few places you can actually walk on the beach.
