Spanish on the beach at Marsden LightSpeed Spanish

In this short video, we spend a little time talking Spanish on the beach. However, we are not in Ibiza or Málaga. Rather, we are at Marsden beach in the north-east of England on a very cold December day.

Quite why we choose to take part in such dangerous outings that could seriously injure our health, I will never know.

We hope that you enjoy a bit of sand, sea and Spanish on the beach.
