Road Tripping Europe

Discovering and photographing the unknown beauty of Europe

Our first trip of 2013 – Seeing the sea again

I love water. I love oceans, seas, rivers, canals, lakes, ponds, and so on. I am fascinated by their eternal movement and the tranquility they evoke. And I especially love them when I can swim in them. Which of course was not the case now since it was way too cold!

I love it when you are walking towards a dune, with this high feeling of expectation. You know you have to do some climbing, but you already anticipate the feeling of being on top of that dune and you know that you can have a good look around and admire the landscape. How will the beach be: crowded or not? Will be the sand be white or golden? Is the sea close to the dunes or not? Are there any waves and if yes, are they big or small?

All these questions ran inside my head when Lars and I were walking in the nature reserve, towards the dunes, towards the beach.

I think the pictures speak for themselves …

    Oh, how I love an empty beach – it gives such a feeling of tranquility. Lovely photos!

      Exactly the same reason why we love it so much!

    Reminds me of a time we were in the ilhas, Ingrid. Our little boat had picked up passengers to drop them at a “deserted” beach. We’d just pulled away when we heard them shouting us back. They’d popped over the top to see just as many people on that bit of beach as elsewhere. So funny!

    I prefer them deserted too. Lovely images.

      Thanks, Jo! And if you really like deserted beaches, maybe you should go to Denmark :-)
