CREATIVE ARTS WEEKEND
Posting a few hours early because I'll be going out soon, so don't be shy, post whatever you want that is an image or a comment, creative or not, but let's keep this group active for A.Mac who is unable to be with us for a while.

Arvo...my favourite beach in all her Spring glory...
Life is good on my sand bar in the Great Southern Land..🐨
I'm surprised that such a beautiful beach is so deserted, as your photos posted over time have indicated. Recently I posted a Discovery Group article about Eluthera in the Bahamas where there is a very small population and lots of beautiful beaches, mostly deserted, but Australia has a lot bigger population.
It was only 13c today so not quite beach weather yet..
Once it starts hitting the 30s this beach runs for 3km so it is never going to get packed...
Just the way I like it and heaps of room for everyone...
It gets busy over Christmas and the summer hols but never anything like this..now that's my idea of hell on earth...nope, never ever for me...
Yeah, now THAT'S crowded.
Canal, Zhouzhuang (© G. Gam)
So picturesque. I didn't realize that Zhouzhuang was part of Suzhou, known as the Venice of China, when we were there. We took a night cruise through other canals. Of all the other great things to see in Suzhou (See LINK -> 12 Best Places to Visit in Suzhou: Lingering Garden, Hanshan Temple...) Unfortunately, other than the canal cruise, all we saw was the Humble Administrator's Garden.
Zhouzhuang is a different city from Suzhou, although I have read that it is one of four county-level cities under the administration of the larger Suzhou municipality. I've also seen the distance between the two listed as from about 18 miles away to 46 miles away. Zhouzhuang is an ancient water town with lots of canals, pedestrian bridges and old buildings. It is beautiful. We visited Zhouzhuang on a different day from the day we went to Suzhou. They are both about an hour's drive from Shanghai and they are both well-worth visiting.
The Humble Administrator's Garden is also the garden we visited in Suzhou. It is awesome.
Okay, guess I was confused by the link I posted.
Understandable. It makes it seem like Zhouzhuang is a neighborhood in Suzhou. It's not.
Arvo...Spring has sprung here..at our botanical gardens..
And our Mr Blubber aka Sammi..he is an elephant seal and rolls up every few months for a visit..he has stacked on the blubber since last time I saw him..
Obviously Sammi just wants to be with people. You've heard of "people persons" and he thinks of himself as a "people seal".
Yes there are a couple of them doted around the coast that have come into towns..this one is in Tasmania... Neal the seal..
LOL Amazing.
Let's add this...
The weekend has just come to a close on the west coast of the USA, and so it's time to lock this weekend article. Thanks to those of you who contributed images and/or comments and/or voting up the article and whatever else.
