Beautiful Day

We have been visiting nature reserve 't Zwin again.
The new visitors centre Zwin Nature Park is looking good!

We'll have to visit the visitors centre some other time,
we just couldn't wait for the beach any longer (smile).

Only during low tide you can cross the Belgian-Dutch border.
Today time was on our side so we crossed the border, we visited
beach pavilion De Zeemeeuw and returned to Belgium before the tide came in.
On the beach you may find some fossils. Our fossil catch: 2 teeth + 1 vertebra.
Give it a try and find the fossilized shark tooth in the photo...

You can see more kender visits to 't Zwin here

Place by the Sea

This is the place where I'll always go back.

When I was young, me, my brother and our parents spent our holidays here.

I always hoped our parents would buy a second home here.
Too bad they didn't.... yet. Mum and dad.... it's never too late! :))

I prefer the quiet autumn or winter time. It's so tranquil!
On several occasions we had the whole beach to ourselves.

A south wester storm makes it even more perfect.

Finds

I love searching the beach for treasures of nature.

We found some lovely sea shells, urchins, bones and vertebras in De Panne!

Bones

My treasures from nature.

Bones, feathers, sea shells, sea urchins.

Deco

I'm really fond of shells, fossils, sea weed, sea urchins, stones, twines, seed heads, 

So you can find these all over the house.
