RE: Forest walk

in #nature7 years ago

The photo with the pine trees and the sandy beach in the background really threw me back to my childhood.

We used to go to the beach at the northern part of Lake Peipus quite often when I was a kid. I remember how we always parked our car at this lot inbetween the pines that was owned by a pair of elderly twin sisters (they were also my grandmother's friends; one of them passed away one year and I'm not sure if the other is still alive). Back in the day they charged people 25.- (kroons) for parking; now it's around 2€.

The beach was just a really short walk away; to get there one had to cross a road and go through a narrow strip of a pine forest (like on the photo in this post). I always got my feet and legs either stabbed or scratched by all the sticks and pine cones on the ground and there were a lot of ants, too!

There were these steps of pine roots and sand that went down to the beach - like a staircase formed by nature itself. And when I reached the beach, hot sand would always get in my sandals, so I had to take them off and run around because it was actually even worse with the sandals off, haha!

I love the ''WELCOME FUCK YOU!'' graffiti on the house and as always, abandoned places are interesting! Keep them coming!

Pines always bring me some memories too, i love them. Also, we're planning a trip soon to the areas north of Lake Peipus. Thanks for the story and comment!
