scavenger hunt

It's Monday here in Sydney, but it is probably still Sunday somewhere in the world so technically I am not too late.  I wanted to join in with Ashley's Scavenger Hunt again and didn't want to wait another week.

A couple of weeks ago I spent a wonderful week with my family (and a few of my extended family) at the beach, saying goodbye to summer for another year under a week of glorious cloudless skies, sun and surf.  Some of my photos may be a little obscure in their reference to the photo prompts, but hey, so be it.  Here is my contribution.

Background

My parents have photos of my sisters and I taken at this same beach in the early 70's.  The same hills are in the 'background' and this place holds special memories for me.

Spotted

Due to recent storms that lashed the coast a few months ago, a lot of these rocks and stones have been exposed and now lie dotted or 'spotted' up and down the beach

Weather

Need I say more.  We had a week of fabulous 'weather' and warm sea temperatures.  Evening walks along the beach with the moon rising over the sea and a little sailing boat in the distance on calm seas.  Why would you want to live anywhere else?

Motion

This boat was actually 'motion'less, but it looks like its either jumping into or out from the screen

(I can't decide which).

Sweet

This was a 'sweet' moment with daughters #1 and #3 having a moment of closeness.
