Near our Place

After our adventures near Oksby we headed back towards our place to spy on the beach (and ice cream) by our place. Every time we have gone into town/to the store we have driven down the beachfront road not that far from us and it looked really nice so we decided to explore. It was gorgeous! Only an ice cream place and one other restaurant, but the beach and waterfront walkway were really nice. There were lots of people on the pier crabbing just like we used to when I was younger so that was fun! I did finally test the water and I expected it to be freezing like always, but it was actually warm! Like we probably could have gone swimming it was that warm (but then it would have been even colder when we got out!). While talking with Raymond about it he suggested that it might be because it is so flat so it is easier to warm up in the sun so maybe that is why it was so warm!

We wandered down the beach until we decided to head back to our place and relax for the rest of the afternoon. After dinner we did take a walk from our place down to the town area near us as I didn’t realize we were that close until we were there this afternoon and saw the housing area where we are staying from the beach! And we found another caterpillar! My app says a Ground Lackey.

In the wind on the beach it was chilly today, but without the wind it was warm in the sun! And it was definitely not as windy as it has been. Had to keep putting on and taking off the layers! And sitting out on our deck in the sun was too warm for Raymond this afternoon. And now the dark clouds are rolling in again.

When I had planned this trip I had planned on switching today and yesterday as I thought it might be busy today, a Saturday in June, and it might be hard to find parking, but it was really empty still. Not like yesterday, but not as many people as I would have expected! I was telling Raymond that even in the middle of winter in Poland there are more people in the beach which is true! Polish people are always out walking the beach whenever we are there! Plus this worked out better as yesterday everything was closed so we could have missed all the tasty treats!

Tomorrow we move on to the next stop and hopefully it is not rainy as I am excited for our outdoor adventures! We shall see! But I really enjoyed this area and will definitely have I come back to explore more.Read more
