Sunshine on the beach on a winter Saturday afternoon.
A fine time for families to revive, refresh and reconnect.
Lyall Bay, Wellington, you have our hearts x
Ice-cream for the little ones, coffee for the bigger people. Friends from Napier, sharing our little patch of beloved New Zealand.
Toys made by nature for big and small.
Small sticks for drawing and playing imaginary drums.
Big sticks for making dens and trying to reroot, like trees in the ground.
Sticks for playing like puppy dogs, running and fetching, chasing and racing.
Shells for caressing and treasuring. Pebbles to count and make a splash.
Sand for sifting through fingers and toes.
Smiles that are straight from warm hearts, when the sun gives us a gift of its warm rays on a winter’s day.
This was our Saturday ‘avo at Lyall Bay beach, Wellington…

Gorgeous avo wasn’t it!! And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the photo of you in your Silent Sunday – beautiful!
Awesome . I think we’ve enjoyed trips to the beach this winter more than we normally do in summer. Probably because a blue sky winter day is valued so much more when it follows the usual grey, and the temperature is less stifling. Awesome pics and beautiful words. 🙂
Lovely,lovely photos…the bay looks stunning and you all look so well and happy…just so gorgeous !!
