Today I returned home from a wonderful few days at the beach. I wish I could have stayed longer, but the time I spent there was so much fun and the ocean was stunning!
We went on walks over the rocks each day and got to enjoy the beautiful views, walking to the edge and watching the waves crashing around us. On our last day we stuffed our faces with the traditional beach cuisine of fish and chips, which were so filling that afterwards we were feeling so gluggy that we returned back to our cabin and lay on the bed and watched a movie. After we recovered from our greed, we went to the beach and ran around in the sand until...
I ran into a hidden rock and sliced my big toe. A deep cut that flipped back quite a portion of skin and filled with sand while blood was oozing out of it. Being one of the clumsiest people ever, I was not surprised that this happened. And we made the "smart" idea to walk to the beach without shoes on (because our cabin was only 50 or so metres away), which made the walk back a bit of a challenge. But we made it and once I put antiseptic on the wound and bandaged the toe up, we continued our adventure in time for dinner. We got takeaway Chinese and drove to a beach lookout and opened up the boot of the car and sat in it while eating and watching the sun set, which was lovely and a great way to spend our last evening.
After this semesters intensity, a beach break with one of my favourite people ever was exactly what I needed.
