The biggest surprise I gave myself today was this short morning walk. It was unimaginable that I would fit it into the schedule, but as you can see, a miracle happened. Between a piano practice time and other tasks that waited for me later, a rehearsal, work and more work, I managed to fit in a short visit to the seashore. In reality, it is super close to my home, so it didn't affect my schedule heavily. Anyway, I needed a bit of sun and to enjoy the blue sky and white clouds.
I arrived very quickly there but walking just on the promenade would not be as interesting as going down to the water. I had an idea to take off my shoes and step with my feet into the sea. Today we write the last day of November, and the weather is still so good. It was 20 grades Celsius, I know it because the big thermometer that is placed on the promenade showed that number. But even without knowing the number, I would guess that the temperature is around that number as I had a hoodie that I had to take off. It became too warm while I was walking there.
The small pebbles on the beach were also enjoying sunbathing, although they don't have a lot of choices. They are there, sometimes in the deep water when the waves take them, and other times outside, enjoying the temperatures and the sunshine. I guess you already know that I like pebbles, however, it is not easy to walk on them when you want to enter the water and swim. There are parts of the beach where there is more sand and other spots where the pebbles took control. Until I have shoes, it's not a problem to walk there. No feet ache ;)
My walk continued up, on the pavement, and you can also see on the board the aforementioned temperature. 20ºC. It was an enjoyable time for everyone who walked there and for those who decided to sit on the bench and talk.
We have some benches called Happy to Chat bench. If you fancy chatting with random people and socialising with others, or if you want to share some moments from your day with someone - you have the opportunity. Take a seat on one of those benches! Maybe there are things that are easier to share with strangers or just talk about casual topics... If you are not shy to do that!
The pigeons certainly talked about their secret subjects. I didn't understand what they were talking about, but they took a nice seat - at the top of the beach library. Who knows, maybe they read some books too. Maybe they were gossiping about the seagulls or making plans how to get some food from people. It will remain a mystery.
By that beach library, there is a children's playground. Not many of them were playing this morning there, as they are in the school during the morning hours. Just one little girl was playing in the sand. We could see much more activity here in the afternoon, but that is not the time I could be here anymore. It was just my short walk on the seashore and I had to go back to continue with my things. I would go directly home, but one additional thing caught my attention. The street I have to walk through to reach my home had a nice surprise.
That surprise was one cactus that had beautiful flowers. There were more cacti, a whole row of them, but just this one had flowers. Two big, red flowers.
I remember that in this row of cacti, some time ago another one bloomed but I didn't get to take a photo of it. Today I had luck! I suppose the flowers don't last for many days.
And if we talk about flowers. Yesterday @glade1989 posted a flower she saw during her walk, the Bird of paradise flower (Strelitzia). I mentioned to her that we also have these flowers here but in slightly different colours. That was easy! In front of my building, in the small garden part we have, there are two Strelizia plants. Among the green big leaves, two nice flowers were showing their grace.
The short walk finished indeed in a record time, but anyway I was happy to be able to feed my eyes and soul with some lovely views. Flowers, pebbles and of course, white clouds above the sea! 💙
Blooming cactus at this time of the year... that's unusual. Can't wait for spring to see some of mine again (unless they are dead by then).
And they were not fake flowers, I assure you :D
You have a wide selection of cacti that usually bloom, can't be all dead until spring :D Well, I hope all your cacti will survive the winter 😇
Those views and indeed gorgeous and good for ones soul
Thanks for joining the Wednesday Walk :)
Glad you see them in the same way :))
Great photos!
And the walk, as I see it, is wonderful!
Thanks 😇
The walk was short, couldn't get to more places but these views and the cacti flower were enough for feeling good :)
It happens that you get more pleasure from a short walk than from a long one!
That is what happened, indeed :)
This place is beautiful. I love it ❤
💙 It is indeed difficult not to love it :).
Thanks so much 🤗
What a great walk with all these beautiful things and views you can see! Sure it was pleasant to do things despite your busy routines.
For sure it was a super pleasant little break between the things I had. The mind was refreshed ;)
Beautiful photos! I like the idea of the bench. I love the sea, I live on an island and the sea is always present in.
The bench is a super idea! I do see people "using the real-life chat service" :D and that is a good sign :)
Wow, I'm amazed with such beauty. The beach is a place I love, and that one is beautiful and so near the city. Can you tell me where that place is?
This is a little town on the Mediterranean coast (Spain). I like the place even more during the winter, as summer is quite crowded.
Thank you. Winter is coming I hope I get to see it in your future posts.😊
It's such a beautiful article that you took me back to my childhood. I remember my old memories, I've been so far from the sea and the beach for a long time, I really missed it. Thank you for this good article.
I am really glad this post could bring you back childhood memories. Thank you for letting me know. Btw, welcome to Hive, I see you are completely new. Enjoy!!
I'm new here and I'm trying to learn. and I'm lucky to see your post, thank you again.
I loved seeing those clouds on the beach and also those flowering cacti. Congratulations

The blooming cactus was a so nice surprise before I got home. Almost can't decide what I enjoyed more, the beach or the flower :)
The flower or the beach difficult decision. 😅😅
I think the beach would be my first choice.
It is all good until we have to make these "difficult choices" hahaha

Indeed a gorgeous view.. And the weather looks great.. Glad it isn't gloomy unlike here
The weather is great, and usually, during the whole month of December, it is like that. Later, the first months of the year are a bit colder and there is more wind, and sea storms also, but from April it is calm again :)
I send you some sunshine 🌞
@mipiano the flowers are gorgeous! I thought I never seen one around with such beautiful colors 💛
And your neighborhood is so lovely!
Hi there,
you see, I remembered to take a photo of that flower, as promised :)))
Yes, a bit different colours. These are what we have here 🌸
G,ad you could fit in this beautiful walk @mipiano 😊👋🏻 The views over the sea… stunning. It looks like those amazing clouds in the distance are dancing on top of the water 😎
How cool is that bench. They should put more of them around. That’s such a great idea to get people chatting 😊😎
Good night!
Have a wonderful Thursday ☀️🤗
I am glad too, short but lovely :)
The sea was calm and I really loved the clouds in the sky. They didn't bring rain, they were there just to decorate the scenery and as you say, dance on the top of the water.
I agree, there should be more of those benches. to remind people that conversation is important. If you don't have family or friends to talk with, or just want to chat with random people, the reminder is there 😇
Good morning and have a great Thursday you too @littlebee4
Good morning @mipiano 😊👋🏻
That’s good they didn’t bring rain. Here it rained all night. Now it’s dry again.
Indeed, some people are alone and these benches are just such a great reminder.
Thank you so much, enjoy yours ☀️😁
oops, it just rained here.
But it was a short shower just
good night @littlebee4 😇
Here it was on and off all day. Now it’s dry again…. A tire is happy. As it has been a long time.
Good night @mipiano 👋🏻😊
Have a wonderful Friday!
What a blessing to have this close to home!
A small Mipiano vacay, happened after all.;)
Yep, a blessing it is.
But it's a pity I always take the street to work and grocery, and not the one that leads to the beach 🤦♀ 😂
That sounds like you...
😂
Sometimes, taking a little walk admist our busy schedules eases of some unaware stress. Gorgeous views and photos.
You are right, even a little walk, something different from our daily schedule can bring more positive energy and ease stress. 😇
Yeah that's true
You sure have a great time walking and capturing those beautiful nature and places. Those flowers are colorful and yes I love flowers.
Nice to hear that you also like flowers. Their beauty can bring us joy :)

Happy Hive PUD @mipiano 💪🐝
¡Hola @mipiano! Feliz inicio de diciembre. Me encantó tu paseo y me gustó mucho saber que ahora si has tenido tiempo para dedicarle al piano. Me alegra mucho que te hayas alimentado con todas ese hermoso paseo y que, a la vez, nosotros también pudiéramos contemplar toda esa belleza a través de tu publicación. Un abrazo
Hole @tiaene
Es una alegría leer tu comentario, muchas gracias por tu visita. Sí, necesitaba estudiar varias piezas para un ensayo importante, todas piezas nuevas para mi. Una aria de opera de Luigi Cherubini, nada de fácil, pues había que trabajar un poco 😁
Al final decidí salir a despejar mi cabeza. Un abrazo igualmente 🤗
Para mi es un gusto visitar tu página ¡Éxito para ese concierto!
Eres muy amable, gracias 😇
Hi there gorgeous! @mipiano
I hope that you have been well and it's so good to see you here and enjoying life still!
So happy that you got to get out and have a stretch of the mind and body before back to rehearsals and I must say how much I LOVE the Chat bench.
I think I would be there all day as I love a chat with random strangers!
One day I might even see you there! 😃
Hey @chocolatescorpi
Don't forget that Spain is one of the destinations you wanted to visit, so I am just letting you know, this happy-to-chat bench is waiting for you :)
Glad to see you back, and wow, I saw those cute baby kangaroos in your post 😍
Oh yes @mipiano don't you worry lovely lady, I have not forgotten one bit and still wholeheartedly intend to get there and sit on that bench and chat to everyone, its just a matter of when...but some day and soon I hope, you'l hear me laughing form that bench! 🤣
And thank you, it's great to be back and yes, look out for more on those darling little babies too!
This place is awesome! So many beautiful and interesting things to see aside from the lovely beach also like the cactus and the love to chat bench, so cute.
A great place to unwind and you know a little time for yourself plus it's just near you. You are so lucky to be living near this place.
You should visit this much often dear for your me, myself and I time.😊😉👍
I know that I should, I really like to see this view, especially at this time of the year. When I have a free day, I do come and walk with this promenade until the next town, as it leads there. But the workdays are a bit more complicated. Almost impossible, still I was happy I somehow fit it into the schedule. Thanks for your visit @aideleijoie 😎
My pleasure dear. I love seeing other places like yours.
Beautiful beach, I also like to see those sunbathing pebbles😁, Do you try to swim at the beach, it seems like a lot of fun
We swim many times here, but not now when it is the colder season. Still, there are people who swim despite it's not summer now 🙂
Owh means it's winter there,
Congratulations @mipiano! You received a personal badge!
Participate in the next Power Up Day and try to power-up more HIVE to get a bigger Power-Bee.
May the Hive Power be with you!

What a beautiful panorama, that walk must really be revitalizing.
I didn't know that cactus flowers could be so beautiful, I was really struck by that.
Its worth it, Indeed a beautiful veiw.
Me dispuse a leer tus últimos post, palmo a palmo, poco a poco. Y en este, hallé ciertas cosas increíbles. Como detenerse un instante para apreciar ciertas cosas, que a veces, damos por sentado. Disfrutar la belleza de lo simple o sencillamente: maravillarnos. Eres espectacular, @mipiano
Esta publicación es muy bonita. La he mirado varias veces. ¡Y hay un banco para charlas con extraños!
Creo que has venido a sentarte aquí conmigo. Pues lo primero que te pregunto es si te gustan los números... ¿las matemáticas? Me pongo como una gitana y te digo que creo que en tu familia hay cierta inquietud por las matemáticas... ¿habrá que contar cuando se toca el piano...? ¿o no? Lo siento por mi ignorancia, no sé nada de instrumentos.
Nací en 1980. 1+9+8+0= 18
El 9 es un número que también está presente ahí
y el 27 que es la suma de 19+8
Pero el 27 de marzo es mi cumpleaños. Y yo te confieso que no sé nada de numerología. Alguien me ha hecho indagar.
Dice la numerología que el 9, el 18 y el 27 son los números de los ángeles. Y hay todo un tratado al respecto y de lo que significan. Pienso que querías conocerme más.
Juana de Arco, vestida de hombre, liberó la ciudad de Orleans un 27 de abril. Carlos VII, que todavía no había sido coronado, envió a Juana al asedio de Orleans como integrante de un ejército de ayuda y fue allí donde se ganó una gran fama porque el asedio fue levantado solo nueve días después. 😧 el 9.
Y bueno... después a la pobre Doncella de Orleans la 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 (debe haber sido 1 vez y no 18) 😆 ya no me hagas caso... no puedo pensar más... mucho sueño.
¡Buenos días!
(la carta a Francina creo que abrió nuevas autopistas)
Hola Nanixxx.
Vale, m siento allí al banco. :)) Pues mira, los números son importantes en la música, y sí que hay conección con las matemáticas en mi familia, aunque yo no he hecho mucho caso a la misma asignatura. Me interesaba un poco más el misterio que la coincidencia de los números puede traer. Lo de los números 9, 18 y 27 lo tenía claro al ver el librito en la tienda. La carta a Francina la debes tomar en serio. Esucha esos consejos y hazle caso al lado que lo escribió, tiene razón. Ponlo en marcha, ya. Te lo digo en serio. Mucho sueño por otros rincones del mundo, por no dormir. Hazle caso a la carta y te deseo igualmente buenos días, aunque tú deberías primero dormir :))
😳
Lo siento. Todos tenemos nuestro alter ego y el mar que ahora está en remolino quizás mañana esté en calma.
... No sé qué más decir. Perdona si te he incomodado...
No digas nada más, y no pidas perdón. Quizás yo debería.
A veces hacemos daño a nosotros mismos, sin querer. Por favor, duerme.
