Day 1 17/7/11 - England

London -> Littlehampton -> London

Highlight

• Weather was terrible, raining on and off all day
• It took a long time on the train, and rained straight when we got off.
• Walked to the river side to observe all the swans, then made our way to long beach.
• The beach was nice, with funky decorated benches and lots of cool play area
• Rain stopped, sun came out for a bit, but it was super windy and very cold.
• We tried to play by the beach a bit but Allie was having none of it, so we went for a walk along the seaside instead.
• Walked all the way to Rustington with bits of sun and rain, and Allie moaning in her sleep the whole time.
• Settled to have lunch at the very nice 47 Mussel Row, where the seafood was especially good.
• Had a bit of a look at the swans again, before making our way back to the station since there was another storm coming
