Why did it take me so long to write about our Halloween night?
Because for some of that time, we were away on a mini break.
While everyone else was working or at school, we enjoyed the solitude of one of our favourite places.
Deserted beaches, and sometimes wild, overcast weather, it was just as we like it. Early beach walks, late afternoon beach walks, wine and beer and snacks: with the sand between our toes and as the sun went down. For 4 days this beach was our backyard. Climbing, collecting, exploring, playing, building, imagining, watching. Barbecue dinners were eaten outside by the playground and every night we ate magnum ice-creams for dessert.
Although we live only 10 minutes from the beach. This is the place that restores my soul - every time.
Do you have a special holiday place? Maybe a place you keep returning to time and time again? Maybe a tradition of an annual holiday has started in your family, just as it has in mine. Do tell.
