Today we wandered to the sea front in Whitley Bay, hoping for a dig in the sand. On Tuesday, James wanted to dig in the sand at Artventurers, but instead he had a great time playing with foam! However, when we actually got to the sea front, James changed his mind and said that he didn't want to ...
