Beachy Afternoon

It was an exhausting Thursday afternoon. Yes, it wasn't even Friday yet and it was a Thursday after that long weekend (when I went to the beach and Laiza did too) plus afternoon classes that day were cancelled because of a university event. Wait! There's more. We were from a birthday lunch party where there were lots of singing, laughing and a little dancing. 

So how come we were exhausted? I didn't know, too but there was a unanimous need to go and see the beach. This is when I feel so grateful to be on this side of the world where beaches are just 20-minute rides away.

Beaches have a calming effect on a troubled soul. We sat on the shore and let the breeze take away all our thoughts. I found myself lost in the beauty of the dancing coconut trees. 

The water was so cold we were tempted to take a dip. We were not prepared to go for a swim though. I mean, we didn't have extra clothes.

We stayed for only an hour but it was enough to be recharged. :) Special thanks to our kind on-the-go driver, Jypzie and for Laiza for convincing Jypzie. :)
