Simple pleasures at Donkey Beach ...

Taking time out to go to the beach is a way of life in St Lucia and hanging out with friends makes it even more pleasurable and fun!

Our friends Charles and Christina know all the secret beaches on the island and one beach they have always mentioned to us is Donkey Beach. So we figured it was about time we made the trip to see what they have been talking about and we were pleasantly surprised by the location and making some new four legged friends ...


What a view!

Before we hit the road to the beach we come across these horses; it was such a pleasure to see them in this stunning natural environment ...



The Albino horse was quite shy ...


But soon wanted some attention.


As soon as I saw this horse I thought of my friend Shirlie who adores horses ... I named this horse Shirlie.


So friendly!




This horse came right up to our car ... I'll make sure I have a carrot or two next time.




We got back on the road down to ...


Donkey Beach



The Beach ... Stunning! 



James already making himself at home ...


Christina in the shade ...


Charles decides to dig a big BIG hole! ...


It's gonna be deep!


It's gonna be BIG!

Boys, It's all in the engineering 


We need to dig some more ...

Charles is happy!

Digging a hole on a beach, sitting in the sun, swimming in the sea are some of life's simple pleasures. Don't forget to enjoy your life's simple pleasures more often than not ...



HAPPY DAYS!
