Jan 2 2009 It was a windy day and we walked from the corner of Tallows beach right up to where Tallows creek meets the sea. The sea was choppy and the wind was whipping around us as we leaned into the wind. I was in heaven, miles away from work and stress .. it started when I saw a clear plastic bag in the washed up seaweed (just the type of litter that kills the beautiful sea turtles we had seen from the lighthouse earlier that day).... and went from there, a couple of bait packets (ironic that those who enjoy the fruits of the sea care so little for it), a plastic container lid, a condom(picked up with a stick), bottles from NYE celebrations, a straw, bits of broken balloon, a couple more plastic shopping bags .. I had quite a collection at the end of my walk and a huge sense of satisfaction in the fact that anyone else walking on that beach that day would not find a scrap of rubbish ..... Why am I telling you this? Hopefully it will inspire you to do the same one day - it's so true one person can make a difference!
