BITS AND BEACHES<br />

SPREAD THE WORD<br />

Michael Cotgrove and Sheila<br />

Wood sent in this atmospheric<br />

shot from California. Here’s<br />

what they wrote:<br />

‘California weather not quite<br />

up to spec. so Michael took<br />

this picture of Sheila reading<br />

<strong>Viva</strong> <strong>Lewes</strong> in Mission Beach,<br />

just north of San Diego. We<br />

make the trip to the West<br />

Coast every other year or<br />

so, to meet up with Sheila’s<br />

cousin, and we love the slightly<br />

off-beat atmosphere: Mission<br />

Beach is not your typical<br />

seaside town.<br />

Because of the inclement<br />

weather there were no takers<br />

for the switchback ride in<br />

Belmont Park, but Sheila is<br />

standing in front of a newly<br />

opened café, the shopfront<br />

stunningly decorated with a<br />

surf-board motif. A bit more<br />

sunshine would have helped...’<br />

Oh dear.<br />

Meanwhile, Abi Saunders sent<br />

in this lovely picture of her<br />

daughter Tia. Looks perfectly<br />

sunny where she was.<br />

Abi told us Tia was ‘enjoying<br />

this month’s <strong>Viva</strong> at Kololi<br />

Beach Resort in The Gambia.<br />

It was her first trip to Africa,<br />

for the Easter holiday and she<br />

spent peaceful moments catching<br />

up on latest news from<br />

back home.’<br />

Keep taking us with you and<br />

keep spreading the word. Send<br />

your photos and a few words<br />

about you and your trip to<br />
