Bright

 

Brighton was a nice break, but it's good to be back. Now we've got some unnaturally sunny weather for a couple of days. We also had lovely weather on the first day of the trip (although there was a freezing wind of death ever present), but it kept deteriorating as the days went on. Luckily, we didn't experience much rain. I'll stop being such a weather fixated Brit now and throw some pictures at you:

Brighton has a beach! Who would have known!

 Where there's a windy beach, you'll inevitably find

mermaids with super flowy hair!

 Naturally, an ocean-inspired town is not 

complete without some whale-graffiti.

 The sun sets even in Brighton.

 Guess what? There was a beach!

 This was our hostel. (not)

 Experienced travellers extraordinaire.

Not much interesting to report otherwise.

Seaside Town

We had a lecture about surrealist and dada film in the early 20th century, it was really interesting. I also finally saw Andalusian Dog, have only seen parts of it before. We had another 'lecture' in the afternoon, during which we watched a film about an artist who did a really big project in the US, it was also interesting.

Here's some pictures from Whitstable (a lovely seaside town in East Kent, England)

Cool kids hang around in the harbour.

Ah, the smell of the sea.

Looks like someone doesn't want surprise guests in the garden.

SPLUOSH!

Small, sympathetic houses all huddled together by the seaside.

I caught a roomie! I really love that alley's name.

It was really cold that day, but nothing that a hardy Finn can't handle. Especially with a cup of hot chocolate (with tiny marshmallows!) in a cozy café.
