Carpe Diem #1477 Walking Down to the Beach

Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

It's again a very hot day here in The Netherlands, temperatures are rising above 30 degrees Celsius. Maybe the already the result of the global warming, but I think that's a to big word for it. At least until halfway August the weather will stay this way in The Netherlands. There are even weather forecasts that say that we will have temperatures rising until 40 degrees Celsius ... I hope not of course, but you never know.

Global warming it's a worldwide theme and it's a problem, not a little problem, but very big problem. Can we fight against this global warming? Or will there be only desert ...

Today I hope to inspire you through a beautiful image I found somewhere on Tumblr. In my opinion it's a nice image to work with. So are you ready?!

Walking down to the Beach

I wish I could dive into this image and dive into the cool water. Finding the coolness after a hot summer day would be awesome along the beach. The beach ... a place to meditate and contemplate, but also to make love ...

after the heat
together with my love
our own heat
