Windy Lee

Sunday morning, cold and windy, what to do? Jen, Ffion and I decided it looked ideal for a walk along the sea front!

Lee on Solent was rather windswept this morning but not to be detered, we ambled along the promanade towards the Pirates Cove play area which was deserted. Further along we came to the old hovercraft ramp by which point the wind had given us ear ache and we decided it was time to head back for a warming hot chocolate.

This is the home of the Lee On Solent hovercraft museum which is well worth a visit for their annual hovershow. They have all sorts of hovercraft from those used on the cross channel routes to smaller examples and is the only hovercraft museum in the world.

This is the point where it started to rain and we decided to head back to the cafe.

Once we’d enjoyed our drinks and warmed up, it was time to head home and cook Sunday lunch.
