Clarity

Jan and Neil have been suggesting that I might like to come and cycle with them in different coastal towns for some time, but I've never really had the opportunity until now! The weather today was awesome, sunny and breezy and warm, and I was just in the mood for a gentle pootle along the beach. And so it went for a while. Whilst we were at the other end of the beach from the pier however, I saw some very interesting clouds forming above the town and pointed them out to my companions. As we travelled back towards the centre of the seafront, the weather developed very quickly into quite a beautiful rainstorm which swept down to the sea, luckily a civilised distance away!



Everyone along the beach was entranced, and a lot of cameras and camera-phones came out. The weather front continued out to sea and therefore treated us to a very picture-perfect sunset.



A fish-and-chip supper under a shelter whilst what little rain there was in our area abated seemed justified. We cycled slowly back to the van in the dark, after a very relaxing few hours.
