Big Sur at Slapton

Strong easterlies today - which meant sunny skies but bitterly cold wind and huge waves on the South Devon coast. Fabulous Father In Law described the sea as churley today - I think that's a Devonish phrase!

Went to Slapton for a brief wander, looking at the waves crashing against the beach. I'm very lucky that Husband didn't have his camera ready to capture my acrobatics - I was frantically running backwards to avoid an unexpectedly big wave, fell over, but the wave was still coming - so I rolled away, finally resorting to lifting my legs (elegantly) into the air to avoid a drenching - successful, but not graceful.
