I needed to blow the blues away this afternoon so we went for a really windy walk on the beach at Perranporth, three miles of golden sand when the tide is out, as it was. The little pools left by the outgoing tide had bits of seaweed floating in them and small patches of floating sand that were creating pretty shadows. There was an enormous message written in the sand saying Thank you from Perranporth and we guessed that it was for the valedictory fly past of our Rescue helicopter fleet. I am told that the service has been ‘privatised’. Click on any photo for the detail and the caption.
Beautiful Perranporth sands
Seaweed floating in a pool
Sand patterns and their shadows
Tyre tracks. Tomorrow sees the start of the Tunes in the Dunes Festival and there has been a lots of traffic on the sand.
