| High tide when we arrived |
We were treated to a special sunset last night as the sun disappeared behind a cloud on the horizon, and then watched as it dropped out below the cloud like a molten drop of gold before disappearing again. It almost made up for the fact that the wind kept shaking us awake right throughout the night.
We've relocated to a spot right alongside the sea at Utah beach and cycled to the various memorials in the area. It really does make one think about the courage and bravery of those who lived and died in the madness of WWII.
This afternoon we watched from Bokkie's window as the tide went out to expose the beds of cultivated oysters. The place is a hive of activity at the moment with horse riders, dog walkers, cockle collectors and oystermen and -women all going about their business.

| Bokkie parked in the middle of picture, it's hard to believe the waves were only a few metres away when we arrived |
It should be peaceful overnight but I think we'll be woken up early at low tide again by the oyster farmers. It can not be an easy job for them, having their working day dictated to by the tides.
