A lovely sunny day today, we definately made the most of it. We were also out of the apartment this morning at 9.05am!
We went to Lyme Regis, parked the car for two hours, walked up and down the high street and along the sea front and Cobb. We sat on the pebble beach enjoying the sun and watching the kids throwing pebbles in the sea. We then moved to the sandy part of the beach where they played in the sand.
We had a picnic lunch by Charmouth.

Mark brought himself a new hematite ring from the fossil shop in Lyme Regis.
We have matching ones again now!

Anais made a mermaid in the sand.
Roman fell in love with this pebble on the beach and has carried it for the rest of the day calling it his "space laser" to shoot lasers into space!
I brought a child's new "starter" rocket cross stitch kit from a charity shop in Lyme Regis for £1. Not really into cross stitch but as Roman loves rocket's and as it was only £1 I couldn't really leave it there. I might do it myself and then put it in a frame in Roman's bedroom, or try to get the kids to have a go at it too.
We were back in Weymouth this afternoon for 2PM so the kids could see the bridge opening to allow the larger boats to go through. No boats wanted to come through though so the bridge didn't open and the kids were disappointed.
Look at this huge crab in the water. We think he had fallen out of a fisherman's net as he wasn't moving, we think he was dead.

Look at this beautiful rainbow over Weymouth Harbour we saw today!
I LOVE the quaint little side street's in Weymouth town centre.
This afternoon I finished knitting the grey/silver scarf and sewed the ends in to neaten them up. The size of 7 stitches across instead of 5 stitches across definately makes it a nicer length and thickness.
Anais liked Jenny's headband on the weekend as it was quite thick and also covered her ears up keeping them warm.
This afternoon after I had finished the scarf I was wondering what I could start on next.................
I remembered I had some navy chunky wool left from when I made Roman's finger less gloves on Friday.
I made my own pattern up as I went along, though I kind of gave away what I was doing when I asked to measure Anais head!
I did a chain of 70 then singled crocheted into the back loop of each stitch to create the rib effect. It's the same principle as doing the rectangles for the fingerless gloves. When it looked wide enough and making sure I had some wool left over I sewed the two ends together and made a simple crochet flower which I sewed on top of it. Anais loves it!
