Last week my sister's Guide pack went to St Margaret's bay for their session. Feeling rather mellow, I went down there with my camera to take a few shots here are the results .
Upon returning to the car to leave, I realised I was wearing flip flops. The rubbery shoe slipped off the smooth pebbles and resulted in me loosing my balance on several occasions. Having removed the hazardous shoe I attempted once more to climb the slope of slippery pebbles, this time I shakily stepped up the beach trying to ignore the pain induced by standing on large rocks and focusing on not crying. At one point I contemplated the option of getting someone to come down and carry me the rest of the way, but the gaggle of pre pubescent girls being picked up by their parents brought about the realization that it was probably best just to opt for the traditional walking approach. When I reached the summit a wave of relief washed over me and I was met with a renewed awareness of how much of a wuss I really am.
