  1. Gaudi, Don Quixote and centuries of Spanish history rise from the sand at Tottori's Sand Museum, where artists from around the world have transformed sand and water into monumental sculptures. japantimes.co.jp/culture/2026/ #culture #art #tottori #sanddunes #sandmuseum #sculpture #exhibitions #spain

  2. “The #grasses are really those pioneer species, and they are the #dune builders,” she says.

    “By sticking up in the air, they really are able to catch and drop that sand, and that’s the physical action that builds the dune.”

  6. One of the routes through the sand dunes at South Shields' Littlehaven Beach.
    In the distance, the Tynemouth Pier and lighthouse where the waters of Tyne meet the North Sea.
    Always reminds me of one of the scenes in the film adaptation of the BBC TV comedy series 'The Likely Lads'.
    Aware that some reading this might be a bit too young to have been around when the series was aired on TV and never seen the film, the storyline generally follows the lives and friendship of two young working class men, Terry Collier (James Bolam) and Bob Ferris (Rodney Bewes).
    In the movie adaptation, there is a scene filmed on the pier where Bob and Terry are chatting about the future direction of their lives.
    Bob turns to Terry and memorably remarks: "In the chocolate box of life, the top layer's already gone."
    He briefly pauses, then adds: "And someone's pinched the orange creme from the bottom!"

  7. Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, Pacific coast of Oregon. The sun finally breaks through as I get my first glimpse of the Pacific Ocean on that hike. March 1984.

  8. Cycling on Jekyll Island, Georgia, with a Road Scholar group

    April 29, 2026 The challenge we faced while riding around Jekyll Island was using a coaster bike. It was unexpected, and we have not used those bikes in decades. It took some time to reacquaint ourselves with getting on and off those bikes. Another challenge was cycling up the sand dunes with only one gear. Stopping was the final challenge when the cyclist just ahead of us suddenly stopped. We were to follow each other by one bicycle length. Most of us decided to follow the cyclist ahead of […]

  13. Barefoot on the Dunes

    We’d climbed up onto the dunes just as the weather turned. One minute it was postcard Fuerteventura. Bright sand, blue sea, the whole thing was beautiful and the next a slab of grey had slid in off the Atlantic and parked itself overhead. Sudden...

  18. Barefoot on the Dunes

    We'd climbed up onto the dunes just as the weather turned. One minute it was postcard Fuerteventura. Bright sand, blue sea, the whole thing was beautiful and the next a slab of grey had slid in off the Atlantic and parked itself overhead. Suddenly we were running for our cars as rain pelted down. But that was 5 minutes into the future. For now people were enjoying the dunes in Fuerteventura.

  23. The topography of California has always fascinated me, specifically the deserts (mostly the Mojave) of the east. Originally, I believed the Eureka Valley wasn't part of Death Valley, but was pleasantly suprised to learn it's simply an isolated park of the park. (1/2)
