I heard hat NSW beaches are one of the best, pics did not lie! Love to visit someday ;)

We do have some amazing beaches over here @decentropia :)

Such a nice place to watch the sun from, your picture quality is awesome

Thanks @coliva that's very nice of you to say :)

You are welcome

Oh, my!! I never thought I would say this, but, of course, there is great competition in Thailand with these amazing beaches! The sun dances in the sky and the mellow feeling of peace and incredible beauty is absolutely breathtaking! I never thought you would be able to leave where you are, but, I am not sure anymore. I think that it is just you and you make it so incredibly stunning with your photographer's ability, every place looks special.

I am not sure how you do it, but, it is true! My apologies for running so late, it has been a nightmare in real life this week, but, all is well again. :) Love this to pieces!

#MarketFriday has a way of joining our cultures, showing off how they differ and then again, how much they are alike. Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, even your language/languages. Along with the fact of what is normal for where you live? These are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue.

I appreciate the support for #MarketFriday! Thank you! Your participation adds a piece of your world, different from even mine in ways. This entire challenge has opened up the world to me and so many others. Thank you again for being a part of all this! I am so happy to see you here! I hope you have a fabulous day! Hive on!!

Admittedly and with no doubt @dswigle we do have some amazing beautiful beaches in Australia like Fraser Island, Hamilton island and all up and down the coast lines and it does all that for me the sun dancing in the sky and etc... but the difference is Thailand has better hospitality, warmer beaches, great food and everything a hell of a lot cheaper the cost of one return trip to Fraser island, I could live on that money for nearly six months over here in Thailand and have more fun as @world-travel-pro would agree with me :)
