A relaxed moment, chatting and looking out on the stillness of the lagoon.
Not at all like the intensity of Paula’s Thursday’s Special. You will love it!

They’re beautiful darling, so calm and serene. I like boats almost as much as you do, I must pop down to Topsham soon and see what I can find 🙂

It’s going to be bleak here this week, Gilly, but I’m hopeful that after that Spring won’t be too far away. 🙂 We have snowdrops out and hellebores. Apparently Jude was at a garden yesterday. Wooh Hoo! 🙂 Hugs, hon!

Are you in the middle of bleak midwinter, Jet? Still wet in California? I can’t fathom the weather this year! It’s a little crazy (and not only the weather!) 🙂 🙂

Hi Jo, oh yes, it rains endlessly in northern Calif. these days, and yes, bleak. However, I just returned from 10 days in the Caribbean so while my mosquito and chigger bites slowly disappear, I’m pretty happy. 😀 Always fun to enjoy a few moments with you, Jo.

Very peaceful, Jo. While it has been foggy around here, the ocean has been calm and keeps drawing us in for a walk on the boardwalks or the beach (when dogs are allowed).

I quite like foggy walks as long as it’s not cold, Liesbet. Nicely atmospheric 🙂

It was a bit like this here yesterday. Well, not exactly HERE, but over on the south coast on the Helford River. Blue sky and no wind! Now that makes a change… 🙂

It’s a scruffy bit of fisherman’s beach, Andrew, but the lagoon is quite amazing. You can walk across to the sandbar at low tide (but you might have to swim back! Or catch the ferry in Summer 🙂 )

I’m not sure where the name of the beach comes from, Paula, because I believe fabrica means factory in Portuguese too. There used to be a Fabrica at Silves, turned into a museum. Got my answers the wrong way round. Stressful here today. Sorry! 🙂

You are right it means factory in Portuguese too 😉 Thank you, Jo.

I did not know about this beach and was confused by the title. Fabrika means factory in Serbian :D. Beautiful side views, Jo, and perfect reflections in your third shot. Muito obrigada 🙂

I had to crop because there was a lot of sun glare in the original and I’m not clever enough to reduce it. It’s a bit of a cheat really but my Thursday’s Specials usually are. I know you don’t mind 🙂 🙂
