If you go down to the beach today....

you will have it completely to yourself!! I had a stroll down about 7.45 a.m. and the water was like a mill pond, nobody in sight... I collected shells, fed the fish and sat....
One set of footprints...
and the fish were happy to see me and my bag of bread!
and I solved the mystery of the little balls of sand and perfect holes... little crabs make them!! They are the weirdest thing to watch... if you stand very still for a loooong time then they all pop out of the holes with a ball of sand, deposit it and pop right back down again! I've been to the beach loads of times and wondered what created the balls of sand but never saw anything until today...
maybe its because I was wearing my new sandals and not my Crocs!! How cool are they? They are made of plastic so I can wade in the water and they cost £1.00 !!! LOL

And to the beach...

So I was up and about and looked out of the window to see that the beach was empty and the water like a mill pond so I armed myself with bread for the fishes, that stupid hat and my crocs and went for a lovely stroll - and it wasn't even 7.30 a.m. - its the nicest time of day to me, not too hot, nobody about to laugh at the hat, fishes are hungry...

Little fairies come in the night and rake the beach, tidy the sun loungers and have it all pretty for the morning...
The building work in the background is going to be a restaurant, swimming pool, beauty parlour and bowling alley.... yay, way to go... go faster!! ;)
A walk along the beach edge early morning and late evening... bliss!!
OK, took this photo from the beach looking back at our villa... yep... its that close!!

Now I have made you all green like cabbages... I had better get on do something useful... like scrap!! LOL
