My camera has given up the ghost. The lens is stuck open and no matter what it won't retract. To say I'm upset is an understatement but there's nothing I can do about it until I get home.

Fortunately I did bring my TZ5, and although it doesn't have all the gizmos of the TZ30, it will have to do. Also it has some annoying blobs on the screen which I can't erase.

It's been a blue sky day today so there's been a bit of shade hugging, some walking the beach and some time waiting in for the safe to be replaced.

I spent a bit of time sitting on the rocks this afternoon waiting for Mr Pelican to come and do some fishing and wasn't disappointed, so here's one I took earlier.

I apologise for not commenting, but I am enjoying the envy enormously. I'm sure a few of you will get your own back. It's just starting to get dark so a shower is called for before going down to dinner.
