first family trip to Yyteri beach
Our first family trip to Yyteri was towards the end of summer last year, August to be exact if my memory was right. It was not our intention to visit it that time so my camera was left in the house. The whole family was driving to Rauma to see hubby’s new work place and on our way back we decided to drop by this famous beach in Pori coz it was still bright at seven in the evening that time. We were amazed by the vast sand dunes that covered the beach. At first I thought we went to the wrong place. It was a matter of crossing the sand dunes before we could see the beach. I felt it was a long walk from the parking area then going up the hilly sand dunes before the sea was in sight. Excitedly the kids ran towards the sea but then it was for their viewing only. The water was cold and the weather was chilly. Dare to take a plunge? Instead, the kids just made sand castles with their bare hands, picked up sea shells, and ran around the dunes. I know the kids have been missing our trips to the beach when we were still in Thailand but here it was just too windy and cold. It was on this day too that we touched part of the Baltic Sea for first time. Too bad there was no ceremony. Haha. Aside from us, there were few people who were around strolling and enjoying the fresh sea side air. We couldn’t stay too long now…brrr and dinner? It was an indication for us to go home.
