Hi to anyone reading this,
Today I drove on out to the beach. I just felt like a needed some sunshine and fresh air. I also went for a walk.
I sat in the car looking down at the waves coming in. The car park is at the top. It took me a little time to actually get out of the car, as there were some people parked in a car right next to me. At times I can be like that, just a little panicky because there is someone next to me. Anyway I did get out, I grabbed my iPod ( which is in a plastic fitness strap thingy) and keys and made my way over to the rail on the side of the cliff. Looking down and across was awesome. Carrying the iPod is like carrying some kind of security. Just the feeling of something in my hands....
I noticed some people swimming in the water, and a couple of surfers. I decided to walk down the steps that eventually reach the sand. Once at the bottom, I looked to the left to see someone lying in the sand, and a little girl playing there. I made my way to the waters edge, as that is where I like to walk the most. The sand felt gritty and cool there, and every now and then the waves came up and washed over my legs. The water was real icy and refreshing. I kept looking at the ocean and spotted one sole cargo ship waiting to go into port. It was just waiting on the horizon. Walking along, I also noticed a bunch of seagulls hanging out on the beach. I kept getting splashed by the water, as I stepped into the shallow waves as they approached. Ah nice..... Ahead were the "swim in between the flags poles". I walked past those. I walked for a bit more, then turned around and headed back. Below the steps is a beach shower, so I washed the sand off from my legs and feet under the tap. Walked back up the steps, up the hill and to my car. Once there I turned the air conditioner on in my car, and let the hot air out of the open windows. Once it was cooler, off I drove listening to Ed Sheeren singing a love song. I really like that particular song. Anyway I was singing along ( I only sing when I am by myself) I needed to stop at a place and give a lift to someone now..... I was tired walking on the beach, but I am glad I walked.
