Evening beach walks

Strolling the beach in the evening ❤️

Remember that the beach is not just for the day time.

When so many of us are cooped up in offices working all day it’s no wonder so may of us end up with anxiety or mental health issues. I know it’s easy to just go home, sort everything out and chill – for me it’s the dinner and getting myself and the children ready for the next day, then TV or book and bed. But I can assure you that sometimes pushing ourselves to go back out again is beneficial to our souls. This evening I dragged the family out to one of our many local beaches much to their annoyance, as you know they had been busy all day at home, been cycling and enjoyed their day and I was making them go out for a walk.

It was a beautiful evening, the water was lovely and warm on my feet and the sand was cool under foot.

Then on the way home a family discussion turned into them all giving me a history lesson about the world wars, there were some key things that I really had missed by not taking history in secondly school. I must read and watch a few more documentaries about the war, not normal ones though I would like to hear some real life stories from all over the world and understand it’s true impact on peoples every day lives.

So me and my family had an amazing couple of hours just being a family in the world in the moment.

Botany Bay is a small bay on the Thanet coast close to Broadstairs, parking in the evening is generally not too bad. There is a pub The Botany Bay, previously the Fayreness for food, drinks and rooms for the night if your not local.
