A VERY FULL MOON

As we were biking toward Pelican Beach to sit on the pier and eat our dinner we realized how full the moon was and wondered what it would look like from the beach. This we were soon to find out.

On approaching the beach we could see the moon sneaking a peak at us through the fronds of the palms. Full and bright it was, sending beams of light toward us. Our view changed with each step, giving only more appreciation.

We sat with our feet dangling in the water, surrounded by towering palm trees swaying softly in the breeze. The sound of the Caribbean waters gently lapping the sandy shore tickling our ears.

For ages we sat there just staring up at the bright night sky. The stars gleaming, the bright moon standing resolute among them. Awe inspiring you might say, I definitely would!

Photos were taken but, they really do the sight no justice, neither do words really. We only hope our memories can contain such delights.

As we left we hoped that we would be there one night to see the moon rise from behind the vast sea. One can only hope.
