We woke up this morning to discover that the weather was warmer, the fog had finally lifted, and the sun was shining. Perfect weather for a Boxing Day walk along the beach. We jumped in the car and drove down to Deal for a few hours along the coast, then back to the house to pop the roast beef in the oven.

Boxing Day is a great invention. I wish we’d had it when I was a kid…

Perfect weather for a seaside walk

Matthew’s hair is not designed to withstand a coastal wind

Aude’s father poses for a shot

A quick shot with all the hair in place while the wind had died down…

That’s the Christmas spirit!

Cheeky!
