EASTBOURNE SEAFRONT
I am actually in Eastbourne on holidays.
After some heavy showers it cleared up and I went to the seafront. Nothing had changed since last year, the pier still stretching far into the sea and the seagulls meeting on the beach.
Views from the Pier on the seafront
and from the seafront on the Pier. There was a group of Chinese students who spend some weeks in Eastbourne to learn English.
I sat in the sun and read my book and watched people walking by. There were lots of tourists who had the same idea.
When I was hungry I went to the little restaurant on the beach and had a Cornish pasty and a cup of tea
This young seagull watched me hoping for some crumps. Seagull babies are often bigger then their mothers and are not completely white.

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL HOLIDAY
After the heat yesterday, this morning it had cooled down and the sky was cloudy. I was a little disappointed but nevertheless decided to go to the seafront alone, as my friend was feeling very tired. Fortunately the sun came out a little later.
I had a sandwich and tea at my favorite place just beneath the Kiosk where I lost my wallet. Behind me a couple was sitting and the woman's phone rang; I heard her saying "I'll call you later I am in a business meeting " ! I had to laugh because sitting at the seafront in a café with a boyfriend is not really a business meeting unless the lady has a special job !
The seagulls were diving on the sandwiches and managed to take a whole sandwich from one of the two ladies sitting in front of me ! They were so surprised and so was I. Then I met two ladies from London who complained about the children throwing stones at the seagulls. I told her to give them bread instead a stone and watch what the seagulls would do, and then of course we laughed, because she had done so and was bitten in one finger quiet badly. We talked about Europe and the new immigrants from the Eastern countries and finally discovered that all European countries have the same worries about jobs and money.
After nearly 2 h I left them and decided to take the Eastbourne sightseeing bus, which I had never done.
It was a beautiful tour up to Beachy head and the beginning of the South Downs National Park. At one moment there was a whole class of Japanese teenagers stepping into the bus and they all had an Ipad to take pictures, which looked rather funny. Unfortunately as all teenagers of the world they chatted like a bunch of geese and I could hardly hear the explanation of the tour. But I did the tour twice as it was so nice to sit on the upper deck, enjoying the sunshine and the beautiful landscape, it was the same price I could have started in the morning and sit on the same bus the whole day !
This evening my face looks like a ripe tomato !

EASTBOURNE SEAFRONT
Today I went for the first time since last year to Eastbourne's sea front. The weather had cleared up and the sun came out.
The seafront was as beautiful as each year, with a new colorful flower pattern .
I love the old buildings along the sea, if the cars would be replaced by coaches I could think I am in another century.
A view on the entrance of the pier
and the beautiful pier from one side
and the other
There were lots of people walking and sitting along the seafront.
And as each year I met my friends the seagulls still so naughty as usual. I was sitting on the terrace of a little café just in front of the sea, eating a sandwich when felt a punch on my head ! I thought it was somebody's elbow but no, it was a seagull who had taken my head as a landing strip ! The shock was quiet hard and I was very surprised, but I clinged to my sandwich ! Poor seagull had to dive on another person.
