still beach days..

There seems to be a few days left where you can play at the beach. This was the day, where by now, you know someone, who knows someone who has a very wild weather story. The stormy day which is pretty normal in many parts of the world, shocked and thrilled many Melbournians (and all the houses and cars too). It was a beautiful morning prior to the storm. Friends running to collect seaweed make piles and construct roads.
Experiment with the texture and shape and smell of kelp....
Soak up the incredible space. The tide was low this day so the beach size was huge. Some days the water touches the bottom of the cliff in the background so we were really lucky this day, combination of low tide, sunny day and soft breeze! Did I mention I grew up nearby? Only as an adult do I realise how lucky I was to have such a beautiful, free and open place to be a kid.
Endless opportunities to learn and create and be free.
