My Lovely Summer...

"I wake up in the morning, stretch my legs and take a walk to the balcony. I am hardly surprised by what I see in the distance outside my window. I can smell it in the air and cant wait to taste it with my toes. I know it will sooth me and cool me down, and I get exited at just thinking about taking my step first step into it." I have adored the sea since I was a young child and would drop everything just to spend time on the beach for an hour. I savour every moment I get to spend enjoying the sounds, the smell and the sand. Nothing optimizes summer like the sea.

"I take a step outside and a feeling of wamth latheres over my body, yes summer has arrived and the birds sing to the warm light, inviting it in. There is nothing like the fresh smell of plants and soil, the moist air from the night before and the wamth in the morning causing these fresh scents to swirl in the early morning rays."
The hot sun and the evening rains here in the Southern Hemisphere are telling that summer has hit our doorstep. The air smells so fresh in the morning from the rain that cleard it the night before. There is nothing more fullfilling than stepping out of the front door in the morning and being splashed with the smell of fresh plants and flowers in the.

"I walk back into the house, into the bathroom and take a quick shower. This is the part that gets me all rilled up. I take the bottle, open it and smell its contents. It smooths over my body, sweet smelling and softness which lasts all day. Its like making love for the first time, on a beautifull smmers day with the ocean so close by. This little bottle just makes it all so perfect"
Wondering what it is.... well to me the smell and feel of Lux lotion is what makes summer perfect for me. I love the way it feels and cant get enough of the smell.

My lovely summer

What a beautiful way to share this prompt! I enjoyed reading it and your pictures are quite lovely...
I'm also glad to connect with you because my high school group is planning a reunion in SA for 2011. We haven't agreed on where yet; it'll be a toss up between Jo'burg and Capetown.
I wrote about the 5 images for my blogger blog as summer is a fun time for me as well...
Anyway, I'm stopping by from MamaKat's Writing Workshop; I wrote on Unconditional Love for my Wordpress blog and could use some feedback. Thank you!
Have a great weekend!
Best,
Elizabeth
