The last 4 or 5 days there have been big seas running, unusual for this time of the year and I have been wondering whether they are due to the tragic Japanese tsunami.

The three people certainly give a sense of scale to this crashing Atlantic wave.

A unique spit which adjoins the ancient headland of Hengistbury Head and forms a natural barrier between the harbour and the open sea.

Crescent Lace original designs are based on the Japanese style of chain maille weave. Wave Lace has three graduated sizes of rings flowing along the edge to create the illusion of waves.

Wave Lace is crafted from a total of five sizes of rings in an intricately engineered weave. The largest rings are 7mm in diameter, and the smallest rings are 3mm. The earrings are 1-1/4 inches (3 cm) long; the length of the earring from the top of the earwire is 1-3/8 inches (4 cm). Made of sterling silver with Bali sterling ear wires.

January 22, 2015: Winter surf and high tide resulted in messy saltwater inundation and beach erosion at the Fairmont Orchid, Mauna Lani.

Winter surf is a problem every year, but this is the worst hit we've seen on this stretch of shoreline since we opened this hotel for Ritz-Carlton 26 years ago - even worse than the tsunami that shuttered Kona Village in March, 2011. The difference was wrap-around wave action: this was a direct straight-on hit and the ever-rising high tide. We simply cannot deny climate change - it is very real, and shoreline developers best take heed.
