Brighton

Sarah's choice today. Always keen to visit a beach - she isn't likely to point her finger very far inland.  Today we focussed on Middle Brighton, which includes Church St, known for its shopping, fancy cars and cafe society.  Having said that, it's pretty chilled out and a lovely place to amble along on a Sunday afternoon.  We also hopped down to Brighton Beach which is famous for its row of historic bathing boxes.

What makes me happy ? Well let me see... Justin Bieber, cats, friends and a whole bunch more!

Lots of colours everywhere, I think they were beach towels.

Skateboards are awesome ( but i do not have one ) especially these skate boards.

These sea gulls look like they are all sitting down in a classroom.

Lots of tiny shells and little grains of sand everywhere!

There is our beautiful city, of course in Melbourne.

I think kite surfing is awesome but weird. And as you've seen, my dad has said he would be able to kite surf. Well do NOT believe him.

The letter C flying in the sky!

Even the mannequins were shocked at the prices in Brighton.

 Vrrmm.  We saw three Ferraris in Church st.

 Gorgeous gentleman watching the world go by.

 ....obviously the 'well-heeled' of Brighton

 This guy was flat out like a lizard drinking.

 For some reason this makes me think of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

 The iconic Brighton Bathing Boxes.

 Brighton Baths

Pastels are hot in Brighton this year.  So is yoga.  It is obviously stressful working out how to spend all that money.

The Brighton Baths - established in 1881, and now boasting a popular restaurant.

A Brighton Jag parked on Church St. Perhaps jag-spotting is my new theme.

A typical little home on the Esplanade, Middle Brighton.

Reckon I could do that...but Sarah reckons I couldn't.

The Dendy Deli on Church St. Popular destination for moviegoers after visiting the Palace Cinema upstairs, or book buyers having just visited the great Top Titles bookstore.

One pill makes you larger, and one pill makes you small.

Brighton mannequins have skinnier legs than other mannequins.

You can worship your beer at Harry's Bar Bistro.

This little beach house on The Esplanade makes me feel like my home is somehow inadequate.

The famous and colourful Dendy St Beach bathing boxes. For a mere $200000 you too can own one of these.

Unfair (that was the name of this surf ski).
