Portobello

I've been to Portobello twice now. It is a cool little place. There is a promenade along the beach that is fun to walk on. You can also get gelato. One time we got ice cream in little teddy cones. It was kind of weird, the texture was slightly gritty. A lot of people were rollerblading, which made me think of Miami. The sand was orange and so soft! The water was freezing and you have to wear a full body suit to go in it. When Richard took us to Portobello he told us how people used to take sea baths. There were these contraptions they put out into the sea and people changed in there and then took a bath. He also said there was a dock that went out into the sea but I think it got destroyed by a storm. I found some cool stones and shells. One of the shells I'm going to make a necklace out of.
