Quality Time Together

To spend some quality time together at the beach - or somewhere else - is necessary for a healthy relationship!

Hi my friends,

thank you for the kind comments from yesterday to my "Spider Lilly" flower. I got a lot of nice comments, a lot of visitors and one person also sent to me the following message on facebook:

Vickie wrote:
"Care of Wikipedia:  Hymenocallis (pronounced /ˌhaɪmɨnəˈkælɪs/)[1] is a genus of plants in the family Amaryllidaceae. It contains 63 species native to tropical and subtropical America. Hymenocallis are bulbous perennial herbs. The flowers have their stamens united to a characteristic corona. Hymenocallis means "beautiful membrane" in Greek, which refers to the staminal corona that connects the stalks of the stamens for a portion of their length. The plants have large spectacular flowers. Some of the species are known as varieties of "spider lilies"."

 

Thank you so much, dear Vickie for telling me this, now I know the exact name of my Spider Lilly flower!

I'm learning everyday something new from my dear friends :)

It's great to have such nice friends - like YOU ALL!

Have a wonderful day - and don't forget to have some quality time today with your "better half"!

Life is Different at the Beach

"At the beach, life is different. Time doesn't move hour to hour but mood to moment. 

We live by the currents, plan by the tides and follow the sun."

~Unknown~

I have always loved the Beach

“I have always loved the beach. The smell of the salty water, the wind in my face, the gentle roar of the waves all combine to create a sense of peace and calm.”

 Hi my friends,

almost unbelievable, it's Friday and weekend is around the corner - again! 

It seems for me that's Friday all the time...*smile*...

Have a wonderful Friday and many thanks for the comments.

A lazy afternoon at the beach

A lazy afternoon at the beach

Sailing away to further horizons

Listen to the song of the ocean

Fun in the sun

I do like the ocean wave, actually. I'm born under the sign of Cancer - the sign of the crab - so I like coastal areas and sunny beaches and such - although not the wide-open and deep seas.

Hi my friends,

I'm a "cancer" sign zodiac too... and the words of this quote are made for me exactly! ...*smile*...

We've spent an afternoon at the beach yesterday, had a long walk together and have enjoyed the hot sun on our shoulders and the warm wind in our faces. Looking out to the horizon and listening to the loud splashing waves to the shores are the most relaxing feelings you can experience. 

They are inspiring and opening up your mind.

I just LOVE to be by the ocean.

The three great elemental sounds in nature...

The three great elemental sounds in nature are the sound of rain, the sound of wind in a primeval wood, and the sound of outer ocean on a beach.

Hi my friends,

Thank you so much for ALL the wonderful comments and compliments to my post from yesterday! This photos above was made on the same spot at Cocoa Beach - but with a sight to the right side, where it was not that crowded at all. People here enjoyed more the silence, they preferred not to sit in a crowd of tourists.

I have something great to share with you and something what I'm very proud of it: 

I got an announcement this morning that my blog was chosen to be on the list of 

the 47 best photo blogs on the web. 

How exciting is that? I love messages like this - It makes my and my THANK YOU goes  out to those people who have chosen me. :)

Go have a look and read more about here! 

Have a wonderful day too!

Susanne

A crowded beach

Cocoa Beach was crowded yesterday

Hi my friends,

Thanks for all your kind comments yesterday!

We went down to the beach in the afternoon. All the parking lots were more than full with cars and families were gathering under umbrellas. Daddies were fishing or tried to do so, kids were screaming, kites were flying and birds tried to catch some extra food.

The real life on a crowded beach! :)

See you tomorrow again? 

I know, it's Easter weekend coming up. A lot of you are for sure not sitting on the computers, like me ;)

Wish you all wonderful Easter days, enjoy life together with your families.

Susanne
