Sparkling Sea


I couldn't wait to finish work today (finished at 2pm) as it is a gorgeous day. 
I couldn't wait to be outside enjoying this lovely weather - even if it is just for today. The weather is due to be not so nice tomorrow.

Isn't it funny how when the weather is nice everybody just seems that much more friendly and happy. 

I went down towards the beach beside our harbour. It was just so lovely and the water was sparkling with the sun.



There is an anchor - I'm not sure who put it there or why but it looks quite good.



And there is a place to sit and have a picnic. 
The hills in the distance are Ayr and Heads of Ayr. 

I really like the misty look to them.

There were lots of people sitting in their cars - but who wants to sit in their car when the weather is so lovely.

 NOT ME!!!

My kind of gal.
And funny how weather here is raining, and sunny at your home. Sunshine sure does help.
Great photos, huge rusty anchor.

Everyone (including me!) is definitely in a better mood when the weather is good. Spring here has not been that great so far, but it sounds like it may be getting better tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

I love this anchor! Isn't it amazing just how huge they are?

Have a wonderful weekend Ellie, and thank you once again.

I love your sparkling sea shot, Ellie! I'm so excited because in June I'm going to have a holiday by the sea in Cornwall! I miss the sea here! We have lakes and mountains, but no sea.

I might spend a great chunk of my life looking at the sea when I'm at work but it doesn't seem to be something I tire of. I sat for a good while looking out on the Clyde the other day - it's got a curious draw the sea.
