Turquoise Water and the hot Sunshine on your Skin

Way to the beach at Coconut Point, Florida



Hi my friends,
Yesterday, it was just to nice weather for sitting in the house in front of the computer all day long!
We went out to the beach, took a walk and I took some photos, of course....what else...LOL...

The Atlantic Ocean had such pretty blue-turquoise colors, almost like down in the Keys. There were not many people at the beach anymore, some families, one dog and some who tried to fish. It was really peaceful to watch the rolling waves coming to the shores and to listen to the screaming shore birds and to see all the sailing Pelicans over our heads.

I'll show you some photos in the next days about and I hope not to bore you with :)
Have a wonderful day, enjoy life!
Susanne

Remember the warmer days in Florida

The picture shows pelicans flying over the waves at Cocoa Beach.



Hi my friends,

The best thing on the cold days we have just now in Florida is: the sun is back again!
It's still not warm enough as it should be, but it's getting better. There are still some cold days ahead.

I worry much more for our animals and plants. I heard stories about the manatees, sea turtles and iguanas who are suffering and dieing from these freezing cold temperatures. People are helping to rescue them all over Florida and they even open up again old electric plants, so the animals can come to warm up in the warm waters there. Sea turtles get washed to the shores, they cannot swim anymore in this cold temperatures. People help to collect them, bring them to shelters where they get good care and warm water to warm up again.

A day in Spring at Folly Beach

Beautiful colors of the water and the sky and some people were already enjoying the sunshine. This is the place to be on a day like this!


A place, where flying kites are not only for little boys...


A place where airplanes meet the clouds...


...and fourteen pelicans are flying over your head...


and you will find some still living shells in the water


and of course, where hubby has to take a closer look to it too - don't worry, we released it back to the sea.


The place also, where palm trees are giving a very tropical look to the scene - I felt almost like back in Key West :-)


...where the palm leafs have very strong colors...


..where black birds are singing in the limbs...


...and on the other side is his neighbor singing too, a brown bird. Can anyone tell me the real names for these little cute birdies?



Do this plant will have some flowers too? I'm pretty sure they'll do, later in the summer - because just now it's "only" springtime.

It's so much fun to spend some time at the beach - and it's big fun to live in Charleston!
