Joshua is a real beach bum and would happily spend all day playing in the sand and sea if given the choice. For months and months over the winter period he has been nagging that he wants to go to the beach. So it is bank holiday weekend, the sun is finally shinning so we headed off to Shoebury beach. Shoebury brings back many childhood memories for me as this is one of Mum's favourite places that she used to take us as kiddies many years ago.
The tide was out when we arrived and there was only about 3 people on the beach. However within an hour the tide was coming in fast and slowly the beach started to fill. The boys loved doing some crab hunting and were putting their catches into buckets. There was also lots and lots of jelly fish around.

| Give Joshua a bucket, a spade and a beach and he will happily dig and play all day long. |

There seemed to be lots of bricks on the beach which gave me an idea to build the boys a little brick castle rather than a sand castle. The idea was then to dig a moat around the castle and try and fill it with water.
