We run in to the water as soon as we arrive. Still fully dressed, the waves splash at our feet. We change in to our swimsuits, and feel the ocean on our first day of the trip.
Days later, coral cuts our feet as we explore, swimming deeper. We put on water shoes and walk on the coral reef. Waves splash our face, and saltwater gets in our eyes.
Every afternoon we arrive at the camp and jump into the water. By our last day our legs sting from cuts. The sun shines down on the water, making it aqua blue and surreal. We step in the sand, and, realizing that the water is deep we do our best to stay afloat.
Eventually we swim to shore.
Goodbye ocean
Goodbye
sunsets over the waves.
We have to leave these memories.
Climbing over the wall, jumping over the rocks, leaping into the water, and tracing our names in the sand.
We say goodbye to Camp Homelani
We might never see this beach again.
What a sad ending. I like how you tell the whole story of the beach! Nice :)
