Driving on the beach

Driving on the beach is an incredible feeling. There is a small band of wet dark brown sand... That is where the sand is hard. On the right it´s to wet and you sink in. On the right it´s to dry, you sink in too (happened to us once....so, showel, showel..). A guy on the beach told us the rudiments of driving in these conditions: always stop the car in a right angle to the sea, always stop the engine when parking as the vibration will make the car sink in etc....
With time Thomas got the rythm of the waves and we drove at roughly 80 kmh for 125 kilometers. There where tausends of crabs...and hundreds of sea gulls and pelicans flying off when we approached.... And no other car, as far as you can see.
