Things I’m Loving: 500 Sandcastles

They appeared overnight on the beach at Lyall Bay. The once flat sand came alive.

Over 80 people brought buckets and spades, to work under the night-sky, to leave a surprise.

People stopped and stared in awe.

Children ran down on to the beach to explore.

Castles with moats and turrets…

Magical castles with crystals…

And castles with steps…

Castles that looked like giant wedding cakes…

Even the seagulls stopped to stare.

A thoughtful, heart-warming gift.

An idea from ‘Adventure Wellington‘ group,

which raised over $500 for Child Cancer Foundation.

People are all a chatter about the amazing castles…
