Southampton - Day 3

After spending 2 days in busy London, it was time to drive a bit more South, reach the coast and spend some time in quite and cute areas with our friend Ali and his girlfriend Jo. After I had finished removing all the flowers from his frontyard, they showed around the Southampton area including the New Forest (which was only New Half Forest to my taste, the other half being fields and bushes). At least, I got to see tons of wild horses. That was fun.
Even more fun, we went all the way to the beach and there... it was Heaven: pebbles everywhere, I could not believe my eyes. I love pebbles.

Group picture. Pebbles are way more interesting to me though. I tried to take them all in my hands but it was difficult, too small hands.

I checked if English pebbles can be eaten, maybe they are different from French ones. No. But at least those had a little salty taste.

I am rich!!! I am covered in pebbles, I can't even see my feet anymore.

The whole family, with the Isle of Wight in the background. I heard that Uncle Vincent lived there for 6 months, that must have been a nice place to be.
