HungOverAndUnder aka Hells Weapon

i've had a busy day.

i had an early morning where me and the rest of the family took my niece to the seaside for the first time.
morning started out bad, mother was driving and decided to take a short cut and got totally lost.
an hour later she finally admitted that she was lost and asked for directions seeing how she had neglected to bring a map of any sort with her.



So after an hour of going round in circles, literally, we headed off in the right direction and it seemed to be going well until this moron rear ended us. luckily the rented mini van got away with nothing but a dent in the bumper. we got to the seaside at midday and it was piddling down.

so we broke out the brollies and jumpers and took my niece to play on the beach after a picnic lunch under the rear hatch of the bus.


 
on the way she asked for an ice cream so i brought her one and after one lick my sister took the ice cream and ate it herself, though in fairness it was melting and it's owner wasn't that interested in it.

then we hit the beach and my niece had a great time jumping in the puddles and getting thoroughly drenched then she did some digging and went rock collecting.



then we retreated to the fair and she had some fresh doughnuts and rode the carousel a few times played on the coin fountains and then enjoyed the fun house and the helter-skelter.

 




after the rain stopped we went for a walk down the promenade and her then raided the shops and wanted everything, (we managed to get away with some toy boats, a ball and a windmill).







after much walking we headed back to the bus for the return journey all tired and having had a really good time.
