Lucky brother, Jacqui! We can’t wait to go back at the end of this month. You may know that many times when the rest of the beaches are foggy with marine layer, Coronado seems to escape this.
I recognise the Hotel Del Coronado in the second photo, Terri. It’s a place I’ve visited, and we loved the beach too. I hope we get back there again as kit brings back many happy memories of a wonderful holiday.
That looks familiar, Terri! I love the ocean but even living as close as I do, I don’t go very often. I hope you and I can hook up when you are here in a few weeks.
You always take such fabulous photos Terri. It’s interesting how the one with the boats seems so serene yet the ones with people are full of activity.
XOXO

Yeah – the beach is awesome
And it goes up a notch with a pup to join us

And pink is the color of SS next week? Hmmmm – I might just be able to join this week –/
Have a nice day
What beautiful colors – I love the combination of beach beige, silver, and blue. Great photos, Terri. Now I want to go to the beach…. if only it would warm up a bit!
My hubby’s truck has a rack, but he’s using it for his windsurf boards. I have a hard SUP but we’re taking our two inflatable SUPS for the trip. Rentals are expensive so we just use our own 🙂
Terri, dipping my toes back into blogging slowly. Have missed sharing photos on my blog. Hope to share all of my takes on this month’s Sunday Stills at the end of June.
What stunning photos. The crispness of the red rooftops of the Coronado resort. They just pop against the beachy colors of the sea and sand. That whole complimentary colors thing!!
And what a sparkle on that water. Like diamonds spread across the top of the waves. Breathtaking. The beach and the ocean provide such perfect settings for great photos. I am hoping to get back to the beach in July. Cannot wait!
Hi Leslie, I noticed your blog had been quiet lately. Thank you for your kind words! I’ve also missed your photography and look forward when you can share again.

My brother lives on Coronado so I’m familiar with that beach. What a wonderful time for dogs!

Brother JohnE is retired Navy so it’s a perfect place for him. Tiny little house, though!

Maybe paddle boarding. Hubby windsurfs at the Sacramento delta. Not much wind in San Diego.

Paddleboards are big to travel with, so I assume you can rent them on the beach? I’ve never done either of these adventures.
