Houses people build at the beach - photo essay.

I visited a beach on the west coast of New Zealand - Mokau. It is one of four rivers which devolve on this part of the west coast. That means that there is a lot of driftwood on the beach, one of the delights of this part of New Zealand.
Over the summer people have constructed the most wonderful beach huts and 'houses' from this driftwood. Enjoy my photo essay.
 Large house side view and front view. I love the un-lit fireplace.

 Yummy dark cosy humpy.
 A lighter version of the beach house, the two limbs in the foreground have fallen in.
 Further down the beach clever use of a huge tree protruding from the beach.
 A tiny child's hut at the opposite end of the cosy humpy log above.
This is a total instinctive celebration of the feminine. An awesome minimalist construct centred around a 'yoni' at the upper edge of the tide.

Then today, a storm has arisen and has no doubt wiped them off the beach.
