Travel Photo Thursday — October 13, 2011 — Sun and Sand in South East Asia
Welcome to another week of Travel Photo Thursday. As the days and nights cool down here in Korea I start thinking about the beach. On December 23rd I’ll be arriving in Hua Hin, Thailand for ten days. Hua Hin has a fabulous sand beach; great for walking and swimming. I can’t wait!
To join in the Travel Photo Thursday fun simply post a photo on your blog. Return here and place your link in the Mr. Linky at the bottom of this post.
Please post a link to a post featuring a travel photo, not simply a link to your blog.

I’ve been to so many beautiful beaches in South East Asia; impossible to choose a favorite. Do you have a favorite beach somewhere in the world?

These beach shots are absolutely fabulous!

Terrific shots that suggest a never ending summer. Nothing like a beach holiday on the calender to get you through the tougher months of November & December.
All time favourite beach was an incredible white sand one on the east coast of Tasmania but can’t remember the exact name. Too many years ago.

Leigh was it either Wineglass Bay or the Bay of Fires in Tasmania. I was there earlier this year and have to say they are definitely up there on my favourite beaches list.

I’m in Bali right now and the ocean and beaches are beautiful. I just came from a visit to a black beach!

Some really nice compositions here. In particular, I like the one on the beach with the bow of the boat facing us.

Winter is fast approaching here as well. Nice to think of the beach when scraping ice from the windscreen. Some lovely shots you have there. The prettiest beach I’ve ever seen was on Praslin in the Seychelles.

I’d love to go back to a few of the beaches in the Caribbean I’ve been to — like in Virgin Gorda and Anguilla. Such wonderful memories. Your Borneo photo really reminds me of those places.

Seeing these pictures just brightened my cold rainy day, we’re having in Munich. One of my favorite beaches in Krabi in Thailand, but Hua Hin is also wonderful.

Sweet beach shots and I see why you’re looking forward to getting there!

I particularly like the first, because it looks like an abstract painting. My photo today is waterfront, also, but very different from beach

I love your photo from Mabul Island, Borneo. And some of our own favorite beaches are those from the Adriatic coast of Croatia.

The beach sounds really nice right now, but I suspect after winter actually gets started here in Berlin, I’ll be even more eager for sun & sand!
