Things I did this summer.

Before summer started, I made a list of #20thingstodothissummer, I only managed about ten of them since I found myself preoccupied with work, but the ones I did manage I enjoyed. Summer's nearly over, so before summers over here are three more. 

#4 WALK UP BREAN DOWN. There is quite a big cliff? If that's what you would call it, where I am going on holiday. The first time I climbed it, I was too scared to enjoy it (i hate heights). So I want to do it again. 

The view from the top, I made it! We ended up walking the whole thing and I only got a little scared once, it was a very rewarding experience!
#5 WATER FIGHT. A little water never hurt no one, it's just really fun to soak people, and I have no idea why.

We had a few water fights this summer using the hose, each were so fun and left us soaked. One time I also ended up ruining my fake tan, that was not so great...

#7 PICNIC AT THE BEACH. Food, sea, and sand. All the best things in one!  

Not so much of a picnic, but we enjoyed chips on the beach one evening, they were delicious, the sunset was amazing. Afterwards we gave the seagulls the chips we didn't eat and they chased Abbie down for them, it was crazy, and I have never laughed so hard in my life. 
#13 RUN 3 MILES. It took me like 6/7 minutes to run a mile, three can't be that hard. (Fingers crossed.)

I didn't run anywhere, but I did walk 14 miles so I'm counting that. We walked to Brean Down and then we walked to the fort and back, it was a day filled with walking and chocolate brownies. Way better than any running. The man in the picture? I have no idea who he is, but after I took this we walked all the way down there and further.

More to come! Sushi, lemonade and a flipagram. Exciting stuff.

A long drive and a beach walk.

On Saturday I returned to reality, I went to work on Sunday and spent most of today asleep or reading. Tomorrow is Tuesday and I'm back at work again, so my suitcase is still to be unpacked but I have had enough time to recap my week away (and to write a blog post (priorities)).

SATURDAY
Saturday started with a road trip, if you could call it a road trip. Does it count as a road trip if you only have one stop, that could make a trip to Tesco a road trip. But for coolness reasons... It's a road trip. It took us six hours to get there, and we made a quick stop at starbucks, good old starbucks. During those six hours I did a little reading, listened to an amazing playlist and went a little crazy. We settled in unpacked scoped out cute boys (more to come on the cute boy front) then we took a stroll down the front and went to morrisons and bought cheesecake. Everyone loves cheesecake.

If you don't put it on social media, then its not true.

Why it took us six hours, traffic!

Six hours is a long time, enough to make a girl crazy.

Like I said. If its not on social media, its not true.


Sandy toes and sandals.



We went venti, only on holiday do you go all out.

I think she's trying to kill me.









Even the Haven site we stayed on was pretty, a change from Birmingham!
