The City That Never Sleeps
It's best to keep it short and sweet. (:

title : quick getaway!

The weather is very unusual. It’s still very hot like summer. It seems like a perfect day for a summer get away. In my imagination I am in a resort. I wish I was in a hammock by the beach front sipping a freshly made shake of tropical fruits while reading a good book. Speaking of vacation, my idea of a great vacation is really the beach. I don’t take a plunge in the waters, I really seldom do but I really enjoy the grand scenery. The mere sound of the waves and the water kissing the sand is such a big deal for me. I feel relaxed and tension-free. And of course what I really look after is the bounties of the seas. There is a resort in the south that really serves great food. Their salads are exceptional because they are grown in their own green house. The fresh bounties of the seas like squid, prawns, lobsters and fish are transformed to mouth-watering concoctions and served straight from their wood stoves. I tried making their recipe at home but I did not achieve the taste. I followed all the instructions and I did not use any substitute, but still there is something missing with the taste. A good friend of mine told me that maybe we did not use the same tool. As what we have heard from the resort, they are using wood stoves in preparing their dishes. I never thought it would matter but it really does.
