Two weeks off work have come and gone with us mainly hunkering down at home, preparing for autumn and generally not doing many blog-worthy things.
We did get away for two days to the beach in the Netherlands though.
Unfortunately the weather really didn’t cooperate and it rained pretty much the whole time we were there.
Now I’m usually pretty hardy when it comes to weather but while being soaked through once or twice is quite the adventure… by the time you lose count how many times you’ve gotten wet and everything is just dripping and cold it really stops being fun. We just tried to make the best of it.
And while we’re at this being a bit of a rant, I’ll say that the week after didn’t fare much better with me having headaches and a stomache-ache for most of it in addition to not being able to sit very well (old injury from a fall off the pony which decided to make itself known again), culminating in the worst, head-splitting headache yesterday. I’ll be so glad to see the end of this week. Sorry, just needed out today.
And I promise my next post will be more cheerful because I have some sewing to share as soon as I am recovered enough to take photos š
Very atmospheric photos!

Sorry you’re having a crappy vacation. The photos at the beach came out lovely, though. I hope you’ll be feeling better again soon. And I’m serious about the invitation to come over and have a piece of pie, anytime. š

those are some beautiful photos. I have been so many times at that shore, but my pictures are not this stunning. (I live like 30 minutes with a bike from the Dutch beach), great work!

Thanks Gemma š Oh, where do you live? I envy you for living so close to the beach! Though I guess I’m pretty lucky too, 3 hours by car is not that much.
