Easter @ Portstewart Strand

Pictures taken on the 12th of April

Children love Portstewart Strand
And no wonder too.. cos they can play to their hearts' content
I'm just glad it was alright with their parents for me to take pictures
:)

A little boy goes egg hunting in the dunes
at his heel was the family dog
totally submerged amongst the tall marram grass

One of the most popular sports was to sandsurfing

two little girls prepare for battle

this little thing decided she was ready to ditch her sister
so she devised her own surfboard
I had to laugh at her ingenuity

this tyke decided it'd be more fun to roll down the dunes instead
"One more!," he said, running up the steep slope as fast as his chubby legs could carry him
and the moment he reached me, he happily began his descent

here he is in mid-roll

the big smile on his face had me smiling too
