Brighton Beach

Jen and I spent Saturday and the first part of Sunday in Brighton Beach, which is an hour train ride south of London. Its a fantastically quirky place, and I had a really hard time deciding which photo to post. Jen will post more on her flickr account, which I'll link to. Anyway, these guys on stilts played a fairly convincing version of Hendrix's Voodoo Child despite strong gusty winds off the English Channel. How they managed to stay upright on those stilts is a mystery. At the end of the pier is an amusement park and I went on one of the rides where they bring you a 100 feet up into the air and then let you free fall. I was scared shitless!
