#100ActiveDays – Day 40
We were out and about making the most of the dry (albeit incredibly windy) weather this weekend and making the most of being near the beach. I love where I live but if I could change something about it, I would move it to a shoreline, I just love the beach and (probably weirdly), especially [...]
