today i made pictures from the sea in ter heide, monster and kijkduin. narrow beaches, dark skies and very few visitors. in hoek of holland and 's gravenzande parking was expensive and complicated. the beaches we saw, me and a., were not very special. kijkduin was nice and, possibly because of the shoppnig center, had kind of special atmosphere.
the french fries and the fanta were a welcome meal at this rather dark and stormy afternoon. for a. it was the first time to be on the beach again after having many years a summer cottage in hook of holland. a visit to the beach in stormy wheather is something special, which you just have to experience to know what it is like.
once r and and i went to the beach in hook of holland, i guss on new years eve, when it was very foggy. it was great to walk on the beach, hand in hand not seeing where we walked but just feeling our way in the fog and the darkness. the walk on the beach was great, the drive back to rotterdam by car was another pseical experience not always being able to see where the road went.
