I've still been looking upwards.....skywards over the last week...I can't stop looking at the sky.
Last weekend Mr Thinking of the days and I went to see our darling daughter who now lives on the South Coast. Boo came too..
Leaden skies , the rain all the way
It was still grey as the eight of us (well, six humans plus Boo and her new spaniel friend called Ozzie) began our walk along the front at Southsea on Saturday morning...
But within what seemed like moments, the world changed....blue skies were overhead and I could smell the sea.
Instantly I was in happy place...sailboats, blue water and blue skies took me back to family holidays on the island across the water...and to teenager years when I lived by the Indian ocean.
We all walked and talked...upto the Castle...where we sat outside in the sunshine enjoying coffee and for some, huge bacon butties....
But my eyes were still skywards....I've never seen clouds like this in such a deep blue setting
Or perhaps I have, but not appreciated them before. One thing is for sure - there's so much more I need to know about this wonderful world above us. There's a wonderful man called Tristan Gooley who's written books on natural navigation and exploration http://www.naturalnavigator.com/the-natural-explorer/ ...I must get hold of a copy.
Aren't these skies just magnificient? By the way, none of my photos are surgically enhanced....these colours are exactly what my iphone and I see.
The following day, another walk with just family...and my daughter finally persuaded Boo to go near the water....
Today's track is by Jamirquai....Blue Skies
