Peace and Calm

A picture taken from the window of our room at The Gwesty (see yesterday's blip).

We'd had a lovely day - messing around on the beach, a walk up to the Arts Centre for a lovely lunch, ambling round the shops in the afternoon - and had settled down for a rest in our room before getting in fish and chips for supper.

For a while the Wonderspouse sat in the bay window writing, while I listened to soft music on the hotel's TV and tweeted a little from my iPhone. Then he went for a snooze on the bed and I sat on the floor by the bay window with the camera, watching the sun go down and listening to the waves crashing onto the beach.

I have not known such a peaceful evening in a long time. Very rarely do I know that I AM happy and calm at the time - these things usually only occur to me in retrospect.

So I sat on the floor, watching the little boat make its way across the sunlight on the water, the light slowly fading in the room.

It was very peaceful.
