Travel Thursday
sweet wave and hear them as they crash upon the soft shore. Water an unbelievable shade of blue green, touching sand so light in color that only a mythical creature could have graced the world with such a color combination. The warmth of the sun should bake my blood to a temperate that belittles all lesser temperatures to the depths of frozen hell. The breeze should carry the heady scent of expensive sun oils and fresh foods grilled in open markets, forcing me to want every morsel until I
