When we go to Hawaii ever so often they have this excellent band at the hotel we stay in, they do the Beach Boys so well. As always great Haiku Tom, and the image is beautiful and compliments the words so well. .....Maria :)

Nothing like the beach boys to get you in a summer mood. Cornwall is about four hours drive from here, knowing my luck a great white would appear, now jaws theme is playing in my head lol.

Thank you Sunshine, I have never swam with them but they swam under me once when I went out on a trip to see them in the Indian ocean when I was in Mauritius. thank God I had a swimming mask on or I would have missed them. Tom.
