A sunny winter afternoon


 
 
We have been lucky so far. The winter is better than autumn, as the latter had a lot of dark rainy days. Now it is freezing at night but that gives clear sunny day skies. Great for a walk on the beach. 
 
Walking AND flying on the beach

I love the winter light.



A view on shag pile, the new name for shag rock since the earth quake. It is actually a volcanic outcrop. On the left you see South Brighton beach. As it is low tide you can nearly walk from Sumner beach to Brighton beach

  4. I've probably written this a couple of times but if I ever get down to New Zealand for that dream vacation I might not find my way back on the airplane for the return trip.

  12. Marja, I love the human butterfly and the shagpile rock.. with flowers and wow that winter light reflecting on the water.. Wonderful.. Winter is still beautiful.. We are having a fabulous warm summer for a change, but weird thunderstorms that drop tropical like rain in the bucket loads all at once which results in flash flooding... It knocked a few of our pot plants over at the weekend as a freak wind blew up with the storm too. But nothing to really grumble about.. Lol..
    Love to you and yours.. Sue
