Fratellis - Whistle For The Choir

Today was surprisingly fun. A last minute affair, but it all went great. Got a message from Alice while walking home. Changi Beach? Sounds spontaneously rad. Didn't have enough time to pack my beach ball and straw hat though.

It was still blistering hot and humid on the way to the beach. Got us 2 ice cold coconuts while at the hawker centre. Ahh, nothing better than an ice cold coconut on a sunny day by the beach. Love it.

She was just sitting there, taking in the atmosphere. Fun was definitely in the air. There were lots of families today. Seeing little kids play by the beach was infectious. We mostly just talked, cracked jokes and stuff. Then played by the shoreline for abit. Its been so long since i had wet sand between my toes. Almost forgot what it felt like. Bliss.

We were so not prepared for a swim, but it felt so inviting. Just dipped our feet, while the waves erased away fresh footprints just made in the sand. Actually thought of building a bridge, but we stopped once we found out we were digging up worms. Hilarious reactions ensued. I'll bring a spade next time, instead of improvising with half of the get-a-toy-in-a-plastic-ball-for-1-dollar receptacle. The weather in the late afternoon couldn't have been better. The evening sky was a nice hue of orange, and the gentle sea breeze had a calming effect. We went off once it got dark.

And emi's right, cameras are the reason we take moments like this for granted. So i'm just going to commit the pictures to memory.

Thanks for the donuts. They made my week. Love 'em.
