Nothing but a beautiful view of my favourite beach today.
A slow walk on the sand, tasting the salty air, the breeze brushing my skin. Strolling over warm silky grains, washed by gently breaking waves; picking up shells and peering in rock pools. Gazing out over the azure ocean, eyes resting on a ruby-sailed yacht. And later, sitting on a sun-warmed rock, waiting for the glowing golden orb to sink beneath distant Table Mountain in a sudden flare of scarlet.
Have a pleasant and peaceful weekend, wherever you are in the world.
Just beautiful. I wish I was there! Have a wonderful weekend!

I can’t think of the last time I took a slow walk on a sandy beach. Sigh. Just sigh.

It’s easier to manage when it’s only down the road, yet still I don’t indulge myself as often as I might.

Ask Foster and Panda to bring you back a huge bucketful of sand next time an adventure has them heading to a beach!
