Fifth day - Navidale beach and farm

There is a soft grey and silver sky and silver smooth water, where both meet at the horizon is hidden - blurred except where far away patches of light mirror the sun. No wind today and tiny waves fold clear and quiet on stone and sand and rock that looks white sheets laid out to dry. Duck families swim and dive, bobbing up in turn, gulls swoop and scream and cormorants spread their wings. There are butterflies, black spiders, beetles, bees all buzzing in the warm air. Climb the green hill behind and up from the beach -lush with grass that soaks the feet. A path leads through part of the farm beside a deep calm pool that reflects the sky above then tracks past a walled and gated graveyard to the road beyond.
