still wishing for a dog

it's been over a month. sydney is getting warmer each day and i am starting to warm up to the city as well.

yesterday, i spent a lazy afternoon at bondi beach. [lem wasn't so lazy as he was taking pictures.] i, on the other hand, stretched on the mat, read some tourist booklet on sydney, listened to vienna, munched on seedless grapes, soaked in the sun, touched the sand and enjoyed the scent of the ocean foam made by waves crashing down to the shore bringing with them a herd of surfers.

suddenly i felt a chill in the wind as the sun started to set. we packed up, walked a bit north where the sun's rays were still visible, and saw the sun setting. not behind some grand mountain ranges like i am used to, but behind a group of buildings of another coastal suburb.

a sunset is still a sunset. i am thankful to see yet another day ended and hopeful for the day that's about to begin.
