We went out last Saturday

You thought; to the sea of course ! The weather was splendid,glorious hot,a little wind from the north and a blue sky. But first in the morning we have got to work : milk the cows,fodder the calfs and the pigs. At ten o’ clock,my Wife and I we were ready to leave to the beach.It is thirty km far to De Panne.

Lucky we found quick a parkingplace at the market. We took our swimsuits and walked on food trough the busy shopping street towards the sea. There were a lot of people in the shopping street at the terraces,restaurants,thearooms. We arrived at the beach, sought and found a bathingbox that we rented to change the clothes. First we wet us,then we prudent slid in the water and it was a delightful swim side. The water was clear,not cold, the sea kept calm. Further we rented a beach-chair, greased one another with sunburnlotion,put up our sunglasses and we sunbathed a half hour.

Meanwhile it was thirty past one and we were hungry,we knew a good restaurant in the big street,ate a delicious meal with afterwards a big piece of tart and coffee. Then once more we went for a walk trough the shopping street.My Wife is very interested in the beautiful clothes in the show-windows.We bought sweets in a sweet-shop to give to the stay-at-home people.

It was nearly evening and we left De panne,direction homewards,but we sought a quiet road to return.

The hours were flown and the day was been very nice !

When you have an holiday , if I were you, the sea is a must !
