    made our way through the furiously hot city. Up ahead a bridge loomed‚ and I was in such a hurry to cross it. We started moving up over the city and then‚ through the shiny window glass‚ I saw the blue-green waters‚ reflecting like a mirror to the sky. My heart soared; I was home. With the bridge behind us I could see the splashing waters below‚ and my toes itched to dig into the warm sand. Pressing my fingers to the glass‚ I could feel the suns rays warming my fingers. I longed to roll down the

The sky is the brightest blue I’ve ever seen‚ so bright that it almost seems as if it is from an animated movie and not real life itself. Fluffy clumps of clouds that were covering the sky before slowly fade away into thin air and the crystal clear waves sparkle like diamonds. The water is never-ending.
