A FEW shots from our wander around Bayshore on Saturday […] AND so to brekkies again, this time at the Long Beach Café on Ocean in downtown, er, Long Beach.

As usual it was pretty packed and very noisy, which is generally a very good sign. Within seconds of being seated we had our coffees and were perusing the menu. One things you can’t say about the Long Beach Café is that it’s short on choices. The menu is huge […] ONE of the best times to take photos of the beach is after a storm.
