  2. Ah, it does look inviting indeed!! Love those blue, blue skies and water!! It's gray, gray, gray here -- surely doesn't help promote a good mood for the day!! Hope you have a great weekend, Grace!! Enjoy!

  4. Thanks, Grace, even though we're experiencing a little bit of a thaw today. It's 2 degrees C. today with wind gusting up to 23 mph. Woohoo!!!

  5. It's hard to believe that your summer is ending when we are to have temps of -23˚C tonight, Grace! Spring is nowhere to be seen yet.

  6. Thanks for the warm photos, it is sunny this afternoon but even so it is a cold north wind blowing and it is heavy coat weather.

  9. I would actually be ready for real winter before this beautiful summer!

    So how come you are officially in autumn and we aren't in spring until 21 March?

  11. You lucky one, we had nice temperatures 12C for winter. But now it rains again. Enjoy the beach kife overthere.

  12. Lovely colors. These could have been taken off Florida's east coast. It's not as warm now as you are though. I've heard other people discussing the cockles of my heart on occasion and I'm totally confused. I can't find them anywhere. How are they supposed to get warm?

    That first pic is just right!

  14. Looking forward to that kind of weather here in about a month or so! We are having what I hope is one of our final cold fronts coming through tonight.

  15. Lovely pics Grace. Yes, it's been far too hot when we are at Autumn's doors.
    As Cieldequimper says why do Australian seasons change on the 1st day instead of the 21st as the rest of the world?

  16. Love the blue water. Ours is always murky. Really beautiful photos. Is that you venturing out into the deep Grace?

  17. It worked, I'm already defrosting from the beautiful blue! After more snow yesterday, and a redropping of mercury, I wish I could share the cool with you - we have had more than our fair share:) Stay safe and out of too much sun!

  20. What gorgeous blues!

  21. Ohhh, how cute is that with the hearts and the couple - great pic, Grace, you´re really very good at spotting such things!
    I had to google it - Spring started on 20th over here already! Yay, winter is over, très bien! :-)

  22. Ooh what a contrast to the cold grey day outside my window.

  23. Leaving cold, wet Scotland on Monday to go to WA for a holiday. So keep that great weather for another few weeks please.

  24. I'm trying to picture you on that sailboat in the first picture... sailing off towards a distant adventure.

  25. It looks like summer will never end in WA. Great shots and colours.

  26. Then presumably it must be the first day of our spring - it's happening out there yet!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I can see those hearts and I can see some people trying to cool off in the water too. We are supposed to get some rain this weekend. They are so sure it's coming they have given it a 100% chance of rain prediction.

  28. This looks so warm and inviting...and we have a $#+#©&¥! winter storm bearing down on us...the gift from Canada that unfortunately keeps giving!

  32. These are simply dazzling. I have said it before, but it bears repeating: Perth must have the bluest skies and the bluest ocean!
