Paradise Lost Beach

Paradise Lost Beach, originally uploaded by 璟.

Thanks to the dust storm, visibility at Airlie Beach and the Whitsundays Island was rather bad. I guess that means I have a good reason to return the next time. At least I’m not like the Brits who came all the way here only to have the dust storm spoil everything for them. What a pity.

Nevertheless I had a blast. A quiet blast because I kept to myself pretty much throughout the trip. Instead, I focused more on experiencing the various sensations while on the trip. Remembering the salty seabreeze, the warm wind, the rustling of the palm trees, the rhythmic pulse of a ship at sea, the stillness in the middle of the night, and the chatter of highly excitable American teens whom I met on the trip as well.

It was good. I spent quality time with myself, not distracted by a watch or internet. Just letting the days pass itself. Hope I get to do that again.
