The Saturday of the Easter weekend found us foolishly agreeing to meet one branch of the family at St Margaret's Bay, near Dover in Kent. Certain relations have been reluctant to visit since Heidi arrived and the introduction of Kiki has only served to compound the problem. St Margaret's Bay was suggested as due to the nearby Coastguard Pub although it later transpired that dogs are only allowed into the bar and not the restaurant as first suggested.
I'd not been to St Margaret's for many years having often enjoyed the walk from Dover with the dogs as a child.
We decided to travel down early to ensure the girls had a bit of exercise first although I foolishly forgot to consult the tide table and the sea was in when we arrived. The day started off grey and cold although things did improve later on.
Heidi always enjoys a visit to the seaside.

All in, an enjoyable day out and thankfully the holiday traffic was kind to us.
