The temperatures are soaring here in Adelaide, so first thing in the morning is the best time to get out for a walk. Earlier in the week we drove to Brighton Beach. It was stunning at 7.30am with lots of people walking, jogging, cycling and, even at that time, were in swimming. The water was crystal-clear and the beach pristine. Not one bit of rubbish to be found. I was so impressed how clean the whole area was. It was due to hit 32C that day. That's hot for a visiting Kiwi!
I loved seeing the ‘seniors’ swimming group meet up at a given point, all chatting away pulling on bathing caps, slipping out of shorts and tops and meandering up the beach in twos and threes. Reaching a good distance from the meet up point, all went into the water and about 50 metres offshore, started swimming back. A great way to exercise and be social as well.
On our return walk there were a few of them in the cafe enjoying coffee and a bit of breakfast. It’s such a great climate and place to live, exercise and socialise in.
A sculpture trail has been set up along the boardwalk and I’ve captured a few here to show you.
Hey, Kathy. We know we’re so very lucky. It’s not taken for granted. The temperature soared to 41C on Saturday and there was a massive bush fire in the hills. Too scary. You make sure you stay safe and keep warm.
The beach looks superb and the sculptures are stunning! You are one lucky lady, so envious. We currently have snow 🌨🌨🌨 and temperatures -5c night and just 1c day time 🥶🥶🥶 Enjoy the lovely climate, sunshine, walks and beach.....and keep blogging!
A pleasure, Daria. Glad you enjoyed a little warmth for a few minutes.
It is freezing cold here in Pennsylvania and we are preparing for a "wintry mix" later today. How I do wish I could be walking that beach with you! The pictures are stunning. Thanks for sharing, Annemarie!
