Space to scream to, but the echoes sound like you.

Today we went to a place above Liverpool to a Red Squirrel sanctuary. It was right next to a beach too, first when we got there we had lunch in the car then we went walking through the pine forest where the squirrels were supposed to be, but we didn't see any, so we went to the beach, we didn't stay there too long as it was sooooooo windy! Like crazy soooo windy! We got sand blasted on to the beach, then just blown about while we were on the beach itself, we didn't even wanna touch the sand for fear of us killing ourselves with more wind-blasted sand XD We went back up towards the pine forest then, and let the gerbils out onto some more proteced sand so they could see what it was like as they have never seen a beach before. They didn't seem to care an awful lot, but did a fair bit of the stuff out of the sand Xd We went back into the pine forest then and saw some people gathering at a point, so we went and watched too, where there was a little squirrel eating thrown monkey nuts from the floor. I crept quite close to it, but didn't want to go too close in case i spooked it and then all the people watching would be pissed at me XD A dog came over the ridge though after we'd been watching it 5 mins or so, and it scared the squirrel away cause it wanted to chase it! We went round the corner and found another group of people under some trees and there there were 2 squirrels, which we saw and watched for about half an hour as they ran about fetching nuts and burying them, chasing each other and generally just using up energy! X3 One would come up really close and didn't care that you were there unless you moved towards it, so sweet :3
