a story with sun and moon

The beach in winter is in my favourite 5. We arrived with the last of the late afternoon and just in time to see the sun slowly sinking into the ocean. It was both loud and quiet and peaceful and restless. Our eyes took a little while to adjust to the colour and light and the limitlessness. The girls ran up and down with another small friend until their feet were red like BBQ ready chops. That night there was a partially eclipsed full moon. We drank and ate with friends and felt merry like it was christmas. We must get back again soon:-)
