Learning to read the ocean

We’ve travelled through Catalunya and The Basque Country, and now we’re in Asturias – perhaps the most biodiverse region of Spain. This coastline reminds me the most of our home country of Cymru with its wide windy beaches, rocky cliffs and dramatic outcrops. There’s something about the light here too – or perhaps that’s because autumn feels as if it tumbled into us overnight. Yesterday’s attempt at surfing saw us pummelled into the sand (hence the wet hair in this pic). A few hours later the waves were gently rolling in perfectly for beginners like us – lesson learned. You cannot dictate to the ocean – sometimes you just have to wait it out. Today we will be more patient. Love this pic by @andyrgarside ???
