AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

The Dad in your photo looks like he is as into that sand castle building as his son is.

Alone on a beach, what seems to many as boring on an empty beach. Au contraire, to make a castle with noting more than your imagination and some wet sand is the height of imaginative creativity. I would not tire of a place like this!
