A Long-Awaited Trip to Rustington

[aloysius_bear]

For the past few days, the humans and I have been visiting my primary human's parents in Rustington. We hadn't seen them in over a year, so it was a lovely trip. We stayed in an Airbnb that had an amazing throne in the garden:



There was also a nice shed that provided a sheltered spot to sit and enjoy the foliage:



And some beautiful pansies in pots along the patio:



Inside, the place was pretty small, but had an impressive oven:



True to the nature of our current obsession, we introduced my primary human's parents to geocaching, and some of the caches in Rustington proved quite ingenious:



I particularly liked this fake log, where we left one of my little geocaching bear friends for another adventurer to find:



A couple of the caches were hidden in tamarisk trees, which are quite spiny, so they required a careful approach:



I never would have spotted this one, but one of the humans did:



We left another tiny bear in a cache behind a street sign:



While we were there, my primary human took the opportunity to hold a book signing with some enthusiastic fans:



I was the keeper of the pen, a job that came with a special hat!

We also enjoyed the general environs of Rustington, which always has very well maintained flower displays:



I bet the beach huts round here are expensive...



It was really lovely to get out of London and relax for a few days:



Great to see family again after so long - and lots of fun activities!
