Time flies when you're having fun... And so did this weekend (well I count Friday as well as I had a day off :-) ). And what was so special about this one? Well I got ready for my holiday in a weeks time - I bought three essentials for myself: two bikinis and sun cream -, we went to the beach and I tried my new Calvin Klein bikini and we also went to the New Forest. It was great!
So what do you think about my choice?
Going to the beach is always great - it feels like you've been on holiday :-). I have to say I miss lying on the beach with my book just enjoying the sun a bit but seeing my little one having such a great time is even better! My little Toblerone wasn't quite sure about the whole beach thing at first but once she found out how much fun it is to get messy with the sand and her bucket nothing could stop her.
And then there was the water. It was a bit cold - although I saw a few people actually swimming. The waves were strong enough to get my beach princess nearly completely wet and even I had a slightly wet back lol. I chose a beach with good facilities - parking close to the actual beach, toilets and baby changing not too far away and a cafe/ restaurant close by in case my sandwiches might lack eaters. Unfortunately they were doing some work at one side of beach - haven't found out why - so the loud machines were a bit annoying and the actual area to enjoy was smaller than usually. But still a great day :-).
And as that was not enough for one weekend I went to Beaulieu the next day and had cream tea with my little one and my mum in our favourite tea room/garden centre. "Indulge yourself" hubby said.
And as that was still not enough we went to the New Forest again today enjoyed the warmth of the sun, the quietness of the woods and the smell of summer...
...plus a yummy homemade cake! (I really like that cake - it's with cream, bananas, cherries and chocolate - but it's a cheater ... It is Dr Oetker lol.)
So what do you think about my choice?
