#Spotted at the Beach in Aotearoa New Zealand:

A woman (20s?) in a floaty cotton dress, bare feet and windswept hair is standing at the back of a neon green campervan.
Music softly playing.
Cooking pancakes on a camp stove.
Waves lapping on the shore a few feet away.

A small human (5?) is minding a picnic table while Dad goes inside a fish and chip shop.
Peering anxiously through the door and calling "Is it ready yet?!"
Beaming when Dad gives him a mighty double thumbs up.
Lunch is on the way!

A couple (Late 80s?) both a little stooped and using walking poles, are sitting on a driftwood log to take off their shoes.
Giving their toes a good wiggle, they head for the tideline.
Calf deep in the water, walking poles and all.
Giggling and leaning into each other as they take in the view.

A tiny human (2?) is toddle-running as FAST as he can go after a seagull.
Across a flower-dotted patch of grass.
Past Mum and Dad.
Around a tree.
But he just can't seem to catch it!
Hmm.
Okay.
What if he lays down and rolls towards it instead?
That's DEFINITELY going to work!
(It does not work.)

Two teens (16?) in school uniforms are pulling their bikes up at the beach.
Leaving their schoolbags on the sand.
Shucking their school shirts, kicking off their shoes and running into the surf.
Belly flopping in the water.
The perfect way to end a school day.
