Life is too short not to go where the heart is most happy and free.
So, today we are taking a short roadtrip to the beach for some sand, surf and Vietnamese Pork BBQ sandwich.
Finding time for yourself and your family has never been more critical. Leave work at work, hide our phones, turn off the T.V. and let go of all the negative stress.
To feel alive matters. Our joy and adventure matters.
Blessed day full of sun-kissed blessings to all my fellow bloggers and dreamers out there. We can create a better world just the way we want it.

To feel alive, and grateful, matters so much. What a great reminder from you. Thank you. 🙂
Where is this beach in California by the way? We stopped by a few during our road trip from San Diego to Tahoe.

It’s between Carmel close to Big Sur Bixby Bridge. It’s Garapatta State Beach. It’s our fav now when driving that area. It’s the perfect beach almost free of COVID-19 worries. Thanks

Around that area is our fav escape now. It’s worth the drive when time permits. We hope to go back this Saturday. Hope no fog this time.

So true. One has to make those moments happen and appreciate them. I loved the sound on this. My usual backdrop noise is traffic so the sound of the sea was a welcome distraction.I’ve managed one day at the seashore this year. However, being British means I’m happy that the weather allowed that! Wellies is usual attire for a day out with the family here. It’s all good fun.

Thanks. The beach is an instant escape from it all. Just lucky to live where the ocean is a short drive away.

I grew close to the ocean , & somehow , I feel free and at home being close to it, doesn’t matter where in the World. With today’s heartbreaks & sadness with the pandemic & it’s effects, it’s good to be close to something that help us heal & find a bit of joy. Thanks for the comment.

In between the craziness of work and what’s happening in the world, there’s the beach , just waiting, welcoming, a refuge and escape from it all. Many of my happiest memories with family were sun-kissed. Thanks 🙏

It is as far as I can remember. It never judge, it accepts and welcomes us for who we are, unlike people. The beach is like a best friend that will always be there. Thanks.

“You, you may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you will join us
And the world will be as one”. John Lennon
I don’t agree with a lot of things that John Lennon said, but he was right about giving peace a chance. We need more love these days and less dogma. Blessings.
