Weather on the horizon out at sea. Cumulus Mediocrous raining down like curtains on a stage. Breakers still roll ashore but not as powerful as two days ago. They chunter in as a matter of course across beautiful smooth sand- easy to walk on.

The sea is on its way out and retreats slowly, gradually exposing outcrops of rock, on the secluded small beach. Here on my own today and enjoying the solitude, but not for long.

The colours of sea and sky are quite different today. The sea changes from deep ultramarine on the horizon to pale Jade across the sands. The sky billows smoky blue and shades of stormy azure and grey. The sun appears for a short while, but weather doesn’t last very long…

Swimming is between waves, which relentlessly roll, but the water is comfortable and free from most of the weed. Even if I don’t much feel like swimming, it is always refreshing and invigorating and glad I went in. It is never as cold coming out as I think it is going to be.
