Windy But Still Fun




One of our favourite things about holidays at the Grandparents' village is an evening play on the beach. Although this week is very windy on the coast, it isn't raining, and the temperature is delightfully moderate for summer.







A beautiful way to finish a day.

Nawet nie masz pojęcia jak się cieszę widząc te widoki :-). Uwielbiam morze plaże, a tu jest cudownie. Pozdrawiam

Even though you have no idea how happy I am seeing these views :-). I love the sea, beaches, and here is wonderful. Yours

I'll bet it was a bit chilly... especially to be 'buried' up to the neck in sand! That second shot was a surprise!

I would play everyday on the beach if I was near such a beautiful place. You are building up many memories, enjoy fully every moment!

Jeannette StG said...

That first pic looks so much like the dunes in Holland, where I spent my childhood years! And I can see your children had fun:) Have a very happy New Year, you and your family!

thefisherlady said...

I have the biggest smile on my face... due to your amazing photos of pure beauty and joy! I love the smile on your girl's face and all the cracked sand.
The first photo of the dunes is so much like Bern on Zee on the coast of Holland, a place I visited some 37 years ago. It still looks as glorious as your photo in my minds eye... I can smell the salty air and still catch the full breeze through my hair and the sand is soft between my toes... thank you for sharing this time you had. Love it!

Karen @ Pieces of Contentment said...

Thank you all fro your lovely comments. The beach is a wonderful place to be. Fisher Lady, Master T is our youngest son, a very jovial hands-on 12 year old. I doubt our girls would have been so brave, although they enjoyed coating him in sand!
