After feasting our senses on these and more beauties
we head south and west to the South Pacific Ocean
a great spot to stretch our legs and enjoy the colours
of the open ocean
a magnificent beach and so very crowded
not just one or two pieces of driftwood to use as foreground!
Having filled our lungs with the sweet, pure air,
time to move onward.
Linking with OUR WORLD
The flowers are pretty and I love that driftwood on the beach. I am nearly home now from my trip to Malawi and Zambia, just waiting at Heathrow for my flight this afternoon but thanks for leaving me all the comments when I was away.

The driftwood adds drama to the beautiful scenery!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, those crowded beaches are just the kind I love too! Picking up on your irony and knowing you know that i love the quiet! As you do. We love that ocean (the other side of it). The Atlantic, here in Florida, is not as beautiful and is more crowded.
ReplyDeleteI always love the flowers, but today the driftwood is my favorite!! Great capture and different!! Hope your new year is off to a great start, Arija!! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous place!

Happy New Year to you!
ReplyDeleteYou have some magnificent beach scenes today. So very lovely.
Love the sandy beach and driftwood. We have lots of driftwood on our lake because of logging activities and trees that escape float back and forth with the wind. Old stumps are washed out and look much like the ones in your picture. - Margy
ReplyDeleteThat's my kind of "crowded" beach.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful place Arija, your photos are beautiful. Happy New Year :)
