West Pier Fire - The Morning after

After the fire yesterday we got up at 5.30am to be down at the West Pier for sunrise. Unfortunately the weather had other ideas and it was so hazey that the sun couldn't be seen. Still, it was very quiet with only a few other people around.

We headed back home for a couple of hours and then decided to go out for breakfast and so walked along the beach watching the start of clearing up exercise.
