I love all of the different shades of blue in the water and sky, and the dark greens on the land. That is a really beautiful place. I see why you can go there to clear your mind and feel joy.

Thanks so much, Robin. The blues were so pretty that day and the dark green was a thick layer of seaweed. Dangerous to walk on because it was so slippery but a great contrast against all the blue.
