Kiddie Pool!

Yesterday I posted a photo at the ocean baths in Newcastle and this is the kids pool which is next to the ocean baths. You can see why the pool was closed. No kids in this pool either, I can't think why.

It was a lovely day but the swell on the ocean was huge.

Sorry I am a bit absent again at the moment, I will catch up as soon as I can.

we've had wild weather here in Tassie too...what a great shot of the wild ocean!

[Carole Sandford]

Caertainly can see why! Fabulous shot of those terrific waves though!

[Sally Ings]

The water looks rather rough. I wouldn't want to be out in it. Definitely not safe for any kiddies to be there either.

[Sam]

Oh dear. Kids and adults wouldn't have much of a chance here!

[Connie Little]

Great shot of the wild seas.

[Chris K]

wonderful shot.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Super shot of the great waves and rough seas -- certainly not open to the little ones !

[Photo Bird]

Woah! Great shot, lovely colours and I love that really dark sea

[Rachel]

My goodness! When I was there, all the rocks were exposed. It was a very big swell!

[Sarah]

Wow you have really caught the strong waves. great image

[Nova]

A fantastic capture Babs. I just love the sounds, smells and views of the ocean. :)

[sally agnew]

That is a ferocious looking ocean Babs.:)

[Lou Ann]

Wonderful photo- my what powerful waves!

[Hazel]

Beautiful spray and fresh air!

[gloria jones]

Wow...great capture of those neat waves

[Henri Russell]

Yes, the water does look a little turbulent.

[Casablanca]

Oh mama mia, that is significant surf for the little kiddie pool!! Non water activities today methinks!

[Sue Cooper]

That's a fabulous shot Babs. Fav.

[carol white]

There were some people surfing and kite surfing further along the beach, I suspect the ended up in New Zealand at some stage.

Rachel reminded me that she took a photo of the kiddie pool when she was in Newcastle. Here is Rachel's photo. http://365project.org/888rachel/365/2016-01-10 slightly calmer on that occasion.

[Babs]

@888rachel I have just found the photo you took when you were in Newcastle. Hope you don't mind I posted the link to show everyone what a difference there is between the two shots.
the weather on the day I took my photo was beautiful, it was just the surf was huge.

[Marnie]

Oh crikey, you'd have to be nuts to swim in that - or a surfer.

[Valerie Chesney]

wow, some ocean Babs, great capture..

[Rachel]

@onewing Happy for you to post the link. I can't believe the difference

[8yearson]

It looks beautiful but risky for young children. Accidents happen so quickly..

[Jenfurj]

that surf looks amazing. I love watching the big swells and crashing waves.

[tony gig]

Great nature shot...Fav

[Yao RL]

I wonder why. No one love a tumbling bath?

[Kathy A]

Fabulous photo Babs. Looks really rough out there

[Helen Jane]

Doesn't look like child's play to me. Great shot of the waves though.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

The water looks both dangerous and beautiful! I wouldn't want to see any little ones being swept out to sea by those waves though!
