So I went to visit one of my favourite places recently. This blog will be more pictures than words, especially good if you like looking at vintage cars.
Magnificent Motors
This is held annually on the Western Lawns of Eastbourne seafront in May. A collection of vintage cars descend for public admiration and some of them are pretty amazing. I can't do more than look at the pretty cars and take photos as my car knowledge is non existent, but it makes for an afternoon well spent.
Beachy Head
The cliffs at Beachy Head are stunning. There is a classic red and white stripe lighthouse and lots of paths to walk. There is a high rate of costal erosion, so you can't get too close to the edge in places and it is also sadly an infamous suicide spot. The Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team patrol these cliffs and do a pretty tough job in intercepting those who are in very dark places. On a nice day the view extends out over Sussex and is absolutely beautiful. There are places to park at £1/hr and also a pub, should you care to go for lunch or dinner.
The Beach
Eastbourne is a pebble beach, but with the pier, the bandstand and the carpet gardens running along the promenade there is a lot to see (and photograph). It was a beautiful sunny weekend, so I got some lovely views to share with you.
Eastbourne is under-rated as it is often referred to as God's waiting room. However, it is full of things to do for all the family and is more peaceful than a trip to Brighton. It is mid re-development but the shops at the Arndale are still open for business. It is also great for country/seaside walks if you want to walk with a view.
