Leigh-on-Sea, South Coast, England

Southend-on-sea is a popular vacation spot for Londoners wanting to escape
the city on a nice day or in the summer.  A large amusement park and a long pier
are the main attractions along with casinos and lots of fish and chips restaurants.

The wide expanse of the sea affords scenic vistas as well as beautiful sunsets and moonrises.
















Our bed and breakfast inn for three days.










Low tides leave fishing boats and dories high and dry.
















There's a train for those who don't want to walk the 1.25 miles

Welcome to England.  Typical carvery meal.
