happy day

It's raining here in Miami today but yesterday we had such a beautiful day at the beach. Yes, the beach. The sun was out. The sand was perfectly warm. And my magazines were out, dying to be read. My friends Julie and Jaz were the perfect accessory for such a beautiful day. We also took great pictures, well Julie's camera did. I took mine but it was dead :(. I hope to borrow some from Julie and post them soon. I must reveal the beauty of Miami in March.

The best part was a little park we found in the middle of the noise, of the crowded city. We took out a blanket and sat to have lunch there and admire our beautiful surrounding. It was a great moment for me since it's been awhile since I soaked the sun or enjoyed nature. My dark skin was enamored by the heat. I can tell today as it definitely left it's mark on me. Small one. It's more like my skin is even-toned now. I love the after-beach glow my skin gets. It comes alive. My whole being felt alive after such a wonderful morning. We shared great conversations and the breeze played with our hairs, and our food. Can't wait to do it again!

PS: The pictures above are of the same beach we visited yesterday, except I took these January 1st 2011. Some friends and I headed there in the early hours to catch the sunrise on the first day of the year. It was a beautiful view and a great start to 2011! <3

PSS: Julie will probably have a great post on our Saturday!
