Continuing from the previous post where I said that thou shalt enjoy every day, the weather on Sunday was a sunny 25 C. I thought the weather was great, but decided to go to the beach the following day as Monday's forecast called for 27 C.
Monday came around and the early morning was beautiful. It took me a bit to get ready for the commute to the beach and by the time I showed up at Bondi Beach the sky was overcast. "The clouds are not going to stop me", I thought to myself and plunked myself on the sandy beach. Not long after, a strong wind started blowing and had I continued lying on the beach, within several hours I would have looked like a sand dune. Just another bump on the beach.
To avoid all this sand flying around me and getting into every pore of my body (and into my phone, my poor phone), I moved to the grassy part of the beach. "Ha, now I can enjoy the view of the beach without getting harassed by sand in my eyes", I thought to myself. That lasted for about 10 minutes and then it started to rain. Sheesh! I have been going full force and working on getting us setup for the last month without taking any breaks, and now when I take one day off for myself, it starts raining. At any other time in my life I would have been seriously peeved about the situation, but this time was different. I realized that I can come to the beach 365 days of the year. In the past, I could do that only when I was on vacation. Now, I have at least 30 beaches within an hour bus/train ride or car ride from home. Ahhh, life is good!
