Laguna Beach has several nooks and curves formed by contours in the hilly shoreline. The landscaping with the stone effects, flowers, shrubs, succulents, and palm trees highlight the experience. Several stairways from the hills take us closer to the water.
We had spots where the landscape appeared to frame the ocean views.
The purple flowers in one spot drew me in. As I got closer, I saw the sea’s deep blue and white colors in a small opening between the plants and shrubs.
It is quite a juxtaposition of shrubs, cultivated succulents & cactus, flowers, and palm trees to go with the ocean waves and the blue skyline.
We went down the stairs in one spot to get closer to the sea. With the strong tide, the waves swarmed around the rocks and the last few steps. As I turned on both sides, the sound & playful white of the waves and eclectic colors on the horizon captured all of my consciousness. I was in the moment, touching my body through all the senses. It inspired awe for the majesty of nature.
