It's not everything so dandy and fun in the summer... The last 10 days, we had extreme heat all over Europe, but still, I wouldn't change it for a cold winter... Okay, it would be better to have some moderate temperatures, but let's not be so picky... On this Sunday, I wanted to create a more "serious" post with my observations, which I got during this walk, but I decided to spare you the stress over the weekend... So, let's just enjoy the photos from the seaside!
Some of you will probably recognize the place, and some of you were with me in that place... 😃 We are walking around Calpe, one of the busy tourist cities between Alicante and Valencia, in Spain...
I have shared a couple of walks from this place, but every time, I find something interesting to photograph, and it's different to walk around in different parts of the year.... In summer, I wouldn't suggest walking during the midday, as it's too hot and you will probably get sunburn worse than lying on the beach... I took these photos this morning, between 9 and 10 AM! As you may notice in the first photo, the first beachgoers were already taking positions, while the other beach was empty, as it was still in the shade of the early sun...
Those who took profits during the bull crypto markets are probably the lucky owners of the yachts, anchored close to the port... 😃 😂 Those who didn't cash out are searching pennies under the rock in the photo below... 🤣
This flamingo is doing personal research on the new type of shrimps... There is an X-story which says that you need fewer shrimps per day as they are full of calories... The Flamingo's Holy Grail! Imagine all that excess time to watch around, chase some flamingo chicks instead of putting the head under the water all day?! 🤣
This photo was one of the ones that made my brain think... These 2 buildings weren't there 1-2 years ago, and now, they are close to being finished... There are dozens of similar projects in the building process at the moment, and some of them are literally 20 meters from the beach... Remember the beach in the shade from above? Well, "thanks" to buildings like this, there will be more of them who will not have sunlight in the mornings or in the evenings... And it's not pleasant to sit wet, but the sea, in the morning/evening shade... All that shortens the "quality" time you can have on the beach... Isn't that ironic? You came to enjoy the sea, while "killing" the point by constructing these monsters by the sea... But, that's another topic...
A bit more of the flamingo's lake, and unfortunately, more monstrous buildings in the background...
I hope you enjoyed this walk... Have a great rest of the weekend!
Thank you for your time.
