Summer Nights

It all began with a night stroll along the harbour on a magical summer night. People everywhere, enjoying our beautiful harbour views. Children riding bikes and skateboarding along the pier. Sounds of music, laughter, and chattering blaring as we passed by the restaurants and boats that were docked. The fishermen along the wharves doing what they do best. The smell and breeze of the ocean were so fresh and soothing. Everyone around seemed so happy and relaxed. We stopped at an ice cream cart to get some ice cream. They were selling glowsticks as well and Marigold flower necklaces. I picked up a necklace for my daughter and placed it around her neck, the colour so bright just like the sunset. We grabbed our ice creams and continued our walk, singing out loud our favourite songs.
