WANDERINGS - TENTSMUIR

Avid readers (do I have any - heehee?) will be beginning to notice a pattern in my life - the suns come out and I go to Tentsmuir Beach!

About 10 miles from home, at the end of a single track road, lies a forest, a pine forest, with wildflowers, lichen and mosses, deer and butterflies, amongst the vast array of green and the smell of a pine forest in summer. Make your way through the forest and you come to one of the most amazing beaches I have ever seen - cross the sand dunes, through the marram grass and over the vast expanse of sand and you come to the sea!! In the sunshine the water glistens and dances and you are tempted to swim, put your feet in the water and that temptation quickly leaves! Wander along the beach looking at driftwood and storm debris, listening to the waves lapping the shore and finally if you're lucky you'll come across the seals!

It's a great spot to contemplate life and to realise how lucky you are to live in such a beautiful place!
