Take a deep breath

I am extremely grateful to be able to live in Cape Town - it is truly beautiful and the beaches are fantastic.

Being able to walk on the beach is so good for us - in so many ways - all our senses can benefit, the roar of the waves as they crash on the shore, the smell of the kelp, the taste of salt on our lips, the feel of the sand between our toes and the beauty surrounding us as we gaze at sea and mountains.

At most of the beaches here in the Cape, you can walk long distances - something I love to do and normally carry a packet in case I stumble on something beautiful that has been washed up on to the beach - a piece of drift wood, shells, pebbles that have been tumbled by the ocean - now round and smooth.

Occasionally, one can meet up with some of the local fishermen standing on the shore with their big fishing rods hopeful of landing that "big one"
Both kids and dogs love to play in the sea and sand relishing the sheer freedom of it all.
Hearts and love letters written in the damp sand which will sadly be washed away when the tide comes in again.
Sand castles, buckets and spades, sun umbrellas and picnics, sun bathers and surfers - there is nothing quite so exhilarating -it is time well spent for everyone.

Oh what a great way to spend a sunny morning or afternoon! Strolling, walking and looking for unusual items. Sounds so perfect!

Indeed -the fresh air and sunshine lifts our spirits.

Maybe one day you will - thank for reading my post.

I love the descriptions in this post. You make it sound extra enticing.

It is indeed.

Wow - whew knew the water there was so clear!? LOL

Silly question - but does it get get cold in Cape Town? In the states we don't learn much about geography in school - lol

Yes the water is very clear. -we are in a winter rainfall area and it can get quite cold, but not freezing, and the summers are lovely and hot.

With the cold here I am jealous of the walk I could do if I were at you side if the world. Look fantastic maybe some day .....

I hope one day you will.

A lovely reminiscence and a beautiful view in that photo! Thanks for sharing this two-minute mini-vacation with us! 😊

Glad you enjoyed it.

What a marvellous view... Beach... Is something I can't access easily in my city.. Buildings everywhere.

Such a pity for you - maybe one day?

Yes. One day and the one day must happen. :)

Good thinking
