Las Cuevas Beach - Trinidad

I read that the name "Las Cuevas" is derived from the Spanish word for caves and that there are many caves on this beach. I didn't notice any caves but the road behind the beach is elevated and you do see the rock formations. I walked from one side of the beach to the other side of the beach and back and that was 4 km. I then walked up towards Fort Abercromby and then through the village and then back on the beach. Another 2 km. There is a school and health center and fishing depot. Around Fort Abercromby is a nice hiking trail. The sandy shore is wide with plenty area to setup beach chairs and picnic blankets. Parking is limited and the earlier you set out to get there the less traffic you should encounter.

There are ten characters in the phrase "one to ten" and the distinct letters make up the word "note" which leads me to say, "numbers are the notes of nature". Galileo Galilei famously stated that "Mathematics is the language in which Go

An attempt to see my world differently and move away from the mundane. Link to high res versions of each photo are here . Shade Entrance Deep Silky Feels Blocks Wild High Close Firm

Simplicity

This exhibition is called simply "Simplicity". They say a picture paints a thousand words but sometimes one word is just enough. A letter from each word from each photo is chosen to form the word SIMPLICITY            S-mile        w-I-sdom     cal-M            P-eace            L-ove        m-I-nd            C-ool          k-I-nd persis-T         h-Y-gge You may have noticed a word that you have not seen before. Hygge is a Danish word that means "coziness". It's pronounced "hoo-gah". It is related to the English word hug. Hygge as a concept encourages us to find joy and comfort in the simple things.
