Broughton Burrows

Located near the village of Llangennith, that sand dunes of Broughton Burrows were larger and more complex than yesterdays area. More importantly, though, there was a well equipped playground adjacent to the assembly area! Andy and Dave (with Vanessa) took the children on a memorable wind blasted walk up and down large dunes with some great views of Worm's Head. The children loved it: Ella and Reuben led the way, Duncan took up the rear just behind Katy with Seth and Emma in the middle. The dunes were tough to climb and fun to descend. Another enjoyable event except for the spiky grass which left us with dotty legs reminding us of orienteering in WA bush.


We bid farewell to Christine, Dave and family knowing that we'll see them again when we visit Southampton in a few weeks. Our original plan was to head straight back to Oxford; but this was such a great location that we decided  to extend our stay for another night.




With a drizzly grey afternoon ahead, two tired girls decided to light a fire and relax on the couch! Post dinner activity of toasting marshmallows was a wonderful way to complete our stay.
