The sound of the trees swaying from left to right and left again
The hot, tropical, humid blistering breeze
The leaves fall making it feel like fall
Covering the tides with nature’s debris
Listen to the laughter of children in their Billabong bathers
Footprints printed on the hot, soft sand
Piles of dark frosty multicoloured rocks that show their true colours when held against the light
Screaming splashing sizzling
Cars going up and down the hill
Up and down the hump in the middle of the road
Thumping of cars in potholes
Kree-Kree-Krrrt-Krrt-Krrt
Creatures with wings circling above
Walking along the boardwalk
Parents telling the young ones to not go out too far on the reefs
One side calm
the other rough
Long, hot, humid walks
Beautiful destinations
