Michael, because beaches remind me of the ocean, which reminds me of home.

Michael

Thanks zeta.

What are you referring to when you mean home? Your current home or an old home?

Reminds me of where I live (home) when I'm not here at college: Connecticut. Right now I'm way in the heart of New York State, and there's no ocean nearby. I like being by the ocean because that's where my dad grew up, and the ocean feels like home to me. I like the bite and heaviness of tangy sea-air, and I especially like being ON the ocean, with the mellow rocking of the waves helping me fall asleep.

My dad and I always joke that we don't go on cruises to visit foreign ports; we'd be just as happy if you navigated the boat out until we couldn't see land, and then do lazy circles for 7 days!

Say no more! I feel you and understand you. I live in Miami, FL, so in your world I am blessed. The ocean, and the tropics, to me are where my heart and soul are. No matter where I go, I identify myself, like you, with the ocean. That is why I would love to go spend some time in the Cayman Islands. Last time I went, I swarm withthe stingrays and it truly was the most beautiful thing in the world.
