"The cure for anything is salt water- sweat, tears, or the sea."
-Isak Dinesen
After four long nights of covering night audit shifts, I was looking forward to two days of unwinding (one of which with my cousin Kiyumi that I haven't had a chance to see let alone talk to in forever) and doing nothing. Then my friend Nikki suggested a beach day and I jumped at the chance for all of us to go and just let go. So today I packed up my car with my cousin and some of my girls (they guilt tripped me into taking them) and headed to one of my favorite places.
Salmon Creek Beach --- Bodega Bay, CA |
I have been going to Bodega Bay all my life, but I have never been to Salmon Creek. It's always so busy and it makes parking a nightmare. I usually travel up the coast a little ways to beaches less traveled, or places with hidden gems. I like having the beach to myself or rather ourselves since I have never been there alone. I was pleasantly surprised by it today though. It still had a lot people around, but I think I needed today so much I just didn't care.
This little cutie was sitting right next to us having the time of her life |
The weather was perfect today... not too hot, sun shinning, no overcast or fog, and very light wind. I needed to escape the ridiculous heat wave Napa has been having, and Bodega Bay delivered. It was exactly what I needed.
The smell of the ocean never gets old. I love the smell, the sea breeze in my hair (not so much the humidity), the sun rays against my skin, and the sand between my toes. I have never been so content doing nothing. I am such a California girl. I could never live too far from the ocean. When I go I feel so complete and when I am not there, I always feel apart of me is missing.
I can't wait until my next beach trip...
