Birthday Boy!


As it was Lewis' 9th birthday today we decided to have a day out, and we went to Weymouth. It was fairly quiet in the town and along the beach, and we had a nice lunch in the harbour area next to the Devenish Brewery site.

The highlight of the day was a canoing session along Chesil Beach, or to be more accurate Fleet lagoon which is is the tract of water running 'inside' towards Abbotsbury from Portland. The weather was absolutely glorious with no wind. Lewis had fun paddling all on his own, which is a first for him, as Calshot, where we normally go is fairly challenging terrain.

I even had Greg paddling with me in the back seat for a good twenty minutes, before he decided he could manage no more!

After a little trip down to Portland Bill at the end of the day we popped into Weymouth to get some chips and a beer, before heading home.
