Into the blue

As Malcolm will tell you, I am fascinated by how blue the sea can be. Having been brought up in Norfolk near The Wash, I grew up thinking that the sea was a sandy, muddy, brown soup which was frequently covered in a thick, brown foam of an indeterminate nature! So I am always enthralled by the blue of the sea and in Fuerteventura, the sea was rough enough to show off theses colours beautifully.The breaking surf highlighted the pale turquoise even on the dullest of days......... And the when the waves broke on the rocks, great clouds of spray blew into the air and soaked you if you got too close!Lovely to watch, but I wouldn't want to be in a small boat (or even a large one for that matter) trying to come ashore with a load of fish, would you?Yet more to follow.....
