Feet in the Indian Ocean

Instead of early morning pavement duty, I went walking on the beach this afternoon, barefoot.

Such a different way to walk, the beach was quiet with a few fishermen, the odd surfer and swimmer.

I could watch a White-breasted Cormorant fish, and White-fronted Plovers darting away in front of me.

Although it is hot here in Toti the breeze was up and the ocean around my feet was just lovely.

A beach walk is one of the pleasures of staying here at our Loft. This is a photo I have next to my bed which celebrates stepping out on a beach.

This poem inspired me today:
    “Instructions for living a life. 
    Pay attention. 
    Be astonished. 
    Tell about it.” 
    ― Mary Oliver
