Chasing waves.....!!

It's officially winter here in Australia, and even though it was wet and extremely windy yesterday the temperature was still a mild 19C . I spotted these two young people frolicking  as I was driving past Sorrento Beach, I pulled in and took a few pictures of them having great fun while Mum and Dad were bundled up in jackets taking shelter from the elements! Why is it that young people don't seem to feel the cold....oh heavens, how old does that make me sound!!

  12. Nice, happy pictures, Grace. I'd kill for 19 degrees right now. Rain and wind-lashed Melbourne is a cold place to be today!
