Weekly Challenge #65 - View from my Window

At Home

It was a very windy day today - it may not look it here,
but with a westerly wind there are no waves at the beach, as we face east and the wind is blowing off-shore.
The yacht had been out sailing all afternoon and I was lucky to see it coming ashore when I remembered to take my Challenge photo

The beach is Murrays Bay on the North Shore of Auckland, North Island, New Zealand
The water is the Hauraki Gulf which leads into the Pacific Ocean

The only thing you don't want here is a heliport.

That sail has a full belly. I would say it does look rather windy. What a lovely view.

Great spot, you can sail a boat, take a swim, post a letter, and catch a bus, just by taking a few steps :-)))... very nice Janice...p.s. and even climb a tree.... I can see you up there taking photos from those branches ..YES ?
