Oh to be,
in a solitary ship on the sea!
You could, if you wished, meet up with friends,
but when you got tired,
of the chit and the chat,
you could sail back to solitude on the sea.
Cheers to you from Moloka’i & Maui~

A very beautiful place, great photos, Cindy!
Thank you John დ
I wanna go…right now, please. It looks like a place where it’s not crowded and you still can be alone.
I wish I could beam you right over. It is exactly such a place, solitude around every turn დ
Beam me over, Scotty! 🙂

Gorgeous photos of paradise! <3
Merci beaucoup mon Ami Eliza დ
Wonderful scenery. I can just feel that tropical air, taste the pineapple, feel the warm waves on my feet. Great photos, Cindy. Takes me right there.
So glad you joined me! You make the experience better დ
Thanks, Cindy. You must be having a great time there. Store it up. I think your photo will help make the wonderful parts of the trip last longer in your memories and you can enjoy them again and again. I’ve been meaning to ask if Molokai is still off limits because of leprosy.
Thank you my friend. Moloka’i is open for travel. Leprosy is now a very treatable/curable, and not very contagious disease დ
That’s good to know. Thanks for that update.
დდ
The beauty of nature is always eye-catching. Marvelous pictures.
So happy you enjoyed & thank you! დ
Always the best images from you. I always look forward to viewing the next post . Cheers 😊🌹🙏
You make me happy I posted დდდ

It is so much better when you travel with me Teresa დ
I love your photo essay! Those colors!!
I love you for loving this! Thank you & be well Liz დ
You’re welcome, Cindy!
დდდ
It IS a photo essay: well said! The photo that enchanted me is the one with a spectrum of greens and blues for the water, and the out-of-a-fairytale land, with the pointy trees separating two landscapes. It teleported me to a storybook land. Thank you!
Thank you–and you’rewelcome!
I am so glad you were transported to storybook land! How perfectly lovely. I hope you stayed for quite a long while დ
How glorious to be soaring there 😍Enjoy this special place ❣️
Take good care my dear friend Val დ
Home is the sailor, home from the sea…
Here he lies, where he longed to be დ
Very good, Cindy – you constantly surprise me!
დდდ
Those shorelines are so impressive, Cindy. Thanks for taking us on a tour of them. Enjoy!
Thank you for coming along with me. You make the experience better დ
The colours are so amazing! Such gorgeous photos, Cindy. I love the sea and was raised near it, but haven’t lived near it for a long time.
Same with me. No wonder we understand each other დ
A dream that would be! 🌊💗
Yes indeed დ
Stunning views! Deep envy here. 😉
Love to you Marlene დ

What beauty. And you had it almost to yourselves. Wonderful.
Yes. Solitude is soothing to the soul დ

Beautiful Images Cindy. Are the first few ones via drone or an aircraft. You certainly have an eye for imaging landscape
They were taken from a helicopter with the doors off დ
Water, water, everywhere dear lady. And so soothing to the soul. I love it, as you know I live by the beach, it is so grounding 😀❤️🙏🏽
Yes. The source of us all დ
Love it ! Such beauty!
Our Mother never disappoints! დ
Fabulous, looks absolutely gorgeous. 💕💖💕
Happy you enjoyed Sue & cheers to you დ
Returning to the sea is returning to the source of joy
Yes, joy & peace დ
Fabulous! Thank you for sharing.
You are most welcome and cheers to you დ
Beautiful !! I wish I was there, it is sooooo hot here !
I wish I could have you beamed over! დ
Oh if that were possible ….Luckily it is better at the moment, 23 C°, en next week between 24 and 26 C°, but we need RAIN !!! Any chance you can do a raindance ??? Have a great weekend !
I have been raindancing for years now at The Holler, trying to bring rain to California. It isn’t working……
Bummer !
დდ
Beautiful. How do you get these elevated shots? Helicopter tour?
Yes. Doors off helicopter დ
Cool. Brave lady.

Our beautiful ocean is gorgeous. Thank you დ
Sure makes me want to get back to the islands, Cindy! –Curt
I hope you do! დ
More shooting from above.
Helo is the way to go! დ
You’re going to have to buy one. 🚁🚁🚁
It would be so fun. And so much easier than flying a jet. No wonder I always got along so well with military helicopter pilots. The controls look like a vw that flies.
ExSEAdingly beautiful! Seas the day, my friend! ⃛(❛ั◡˜๑)❤️🌈
Your cleverness never fails to make me smile დ
❤️(ˆ⌣ˆԅ)
So beautiful!
Grazie mille Jennie დ

Lakes and the ocean can in some cases have a calming effect.
Yes. They definitely can and do დ
So beautiful and calming! 💖
Happy you find it so Eugenia. I do too დ

You betcha’.

Under the sea
In an octopus’ garden
In the shade
We would be warm
Below the storm
In our little hideaway
Beneath the waves”

Reblogged this on charles french words reading and writing and commented:
Please enjoy these beautiful photographs from Cindy Knoke!
You Charles, are a light in so many people’s lives. Your thoughtfulness is very special დ
Best place for solitude 😍😍😍
I agree! დ
Oh wow! 😀 Looks like I’ve got behind with blog posts yet again😳😉Been busy giving my blog an overhaul and learning how to use the block editor…who would think adding a few pages before attempting a new post would cause such a disgraceful case of neglect of visiting other blogs!! Terrible Wolfie😉
Anyway, beautiful sea! I would happily sail away to this lovely place – perfect for playing blog catch-up in😃
I am so glad you are back and blessing us with more of your creative talents. I missed space travel with Wolfie and can’t wait to see where we are traveling next დ
I don’t know about blessing you all! 😅 But you certainly bless me with your beautiful photography😃Hopefully space travel with wolfie will re commence in the coming weeks, I have something in mind but got caught up with “pages” for the blog and neglected everything else…oops! Still, at least I was IN blogging land for a change 😆
I am so glad you are back in blogging land!!!
