The first time I saw the ocean was a couple years back. I had to travel all the way across the pond to England to see the ocean for the first time. I was so excited. I could even taste the salt in the wind. It was big, blue and beautiful. Now I live only a few miles from the ocean (although those few miles could take you a good while if the traffic is bad) We haven’t gone yet this year. We are still waiting for the perfect day which consists of no work, clear sky and temperatures above 75 degrees.
