PIP time: Beaches!

I'm stuck in my house for the second day due to snow (and now freezing rain!), so I want to see some gorgeous beaches. It can be a beach you've been to or one you'd like to see someday, your picture or one you found somewhere. It just has to look warm!

This is the beach in Puerto Banus, on the Costa del Sol of Spain. There are these little beach bars at the back of it that also open in the morning to serve coffee, and it was just heaven.

  • BTW, MDGirl, I opened this post originally thinking you were talking about the resort Beaches - which I thought was a little a bizarre coming from you.  =)

    I love that beach!  I was going to post one of the sunset pictures I took the other day, in Waikiki, but it's mostly just a water/sunset picture.  There was an amazing sunset.

    Was it the night the sky was really pink? So awesome..

    When we were little through jr. high, my dad would pick us up from school and we would head straight to Waimanalo and boogie board till dusk.
    Seriously the best memories.

  • I don't remember how to PIP, but you ladies are seriously depressing me with these pics!  I would kill to be at any of these beaches right now.  Sigh.
