When I went to touch the sea the tip of my toes, it feels the same as when I was touching some hoes on the street. When i walked through the sands it feel like my fungus went away. As I walked and felt the breeze caused by mother nature I feel like farting, BROOOOOT, smell the natrualnist and cleanliness, to share my feeling with her. As the wave wash in, I wanted to share some water of my own, so I let myself go, PISSS! Dam, iwant to come again!
