Interesting for sure.

I don't live anywhere near a beach. In fact, I'm at least 12 hours from the closest ocean water. *sigh*.

Always nice to look at the ocean through other's eyes.

If I tried REALLY hard, I could just abut throw a stone from the first beach to my front door.

The second one is Brighton - it's about half an hour away. If you ever saw the film "Oh what a lovely war" it was shot on the pier that I've photographed (before it was burned down, naturally).

Looks very pebbly! Are they building some sort of spacecraft on the water there?
Beautiful little walk, I love how the sun shines on the pebbles - Thanks for sharing.

It's a Victorian pier that was destroyed in a recent fire. All that's left is the cast iron framework.
