My little corner of the world : Omaha



My family has been going up to Omaha for over 20 years now, and it is without doubt one of my favourite places in the world. 


A kilometer of icing sugar sand, cerulean blue water that often shows you your toes even when you're up to your neck, well-preserved dunes that hide the rash of holiday houses, and the knowledge that even on the busiest of summer weekends you will have plenty of space to spread out. 


This weekend it was rainy one minute and biting sun the next, but even the nutty weather couldn't penetrate the bubble of calm that envelopes me as soon as we cross the bridge into Omaha. However long we stay, it is never long enough, especially now that there's an ice cream shop near the surf club!


Sigh...
