A Picnic At Exmouth Cricket Club
Last week we had a really lovely day out with our granddaughter Anna Norfolk. It was a beautiful sunny July day and far too hot for staying at home so my wife and I went in search of a beach and a cooling sea breeze. We drove to Exmouth and when we arrived at the seafront we noticed that the Exmouth cricket grounds were open - a friendly gatekeeper invited us to drive in and park on their outfield for the day. There was lovely clean short grass to spread our picnic. They even had a small cafe and loos available! We were very happy to pay our £3.50 for the day instead of paying the same for a crowded tarmac carpark run by the council! Anna enjoyed the picnic and running around on the grass as all two year-olds do. It was brilliant and we were only a few feet away fron the beach. Then we wandered over to the beach and spent a couple of happy hours paddling in the sea and making a sandcastle. It was a lovely outing, beautiful weather and friendly people at the cricket club. Altogether a good day to remember ! Last edited: 28/07/2008 12:44 by John Howard Norfolk |

Vacation With My Parents & Family
Visited Exmouth with my parents brother & sister-in-law. Remember the beautiful beach. I was 10 years old at the time. I remember we stayed in a hotel not far from the beach, although I cannot remember the hotel name. We had a lovely week, the weather was beautiful and we met some people on vacation from Europe.
