The new planting between the main sea road and the beach is coming along nicely
The entrance to the 'Beach of the Sun'. It's a pay beach, but we go in free because we are residents.
A lot of steps to go down (and up!) - I counted them once, and I think it's 70?
The bourgainvillea not doing that well this year - maybe it's too early in the season.
The beach is packed every weekend (we abstain from coming then) and this lawn fills up with people on their loungers
And here we are, at last! I have missed this. It's 8:30 in the morning and there's not that many people about. Even so, we just manage to get the last umbrella and loungers on the front row which is what I like,
so that I can look at the sea. It calms me so, it's like meditating.
In the distance, on the right hand corner you can see the marina
We do three short swims. It will take a while to build up to swimming to the net again, as we do every summer. You can see the net that surrounds our beach to stop boats coming in, in the horizon (I should have zoomed in to take a close up of it). But, we will build up to it, as we do every year.
Zooming in on our left, I see a school bus.
By 11:00 when we leave, the beach is busy. But, nothing, like it will be by 1:00 and up to 8:00 in the evening. It's too busy for me, I like it when it's quiet
and here they are, the kids that came on the bus we saw.
