Summer is the best time to enjoy the beach, it's a classic, summer and sea, but, I don't really like that combination. I live on an island surrounded by sea and I really don't like the beach 馃槸. That doesn't mean I don't like the sea, although it seems a contradiction. I love being by the sea and enjoying the view and the smell of saltpetre, but it's not the same 馃槃.
The combination of the sound of the waves and the colour blue is ideal to let go of anxiety and for a moment let go of worries in those same waves. That's why I love going to Havana's Malec贸n or to the coast so much. What I don't like is to be on the sand, under the sun and with salty skin馃き, that's the one I don't consider a perfect combination 馃尀馃寠馃槑.
Even so, today I come to show you a beach where I spent a fun time watching my little girl enjoying herself, and where the change of environment was very good for us.
The reason I came to this place, in the company of my sister, was to enjoy a coffee. There is a coffee shop here and at that time of the afternoon my sister and I were craving for a coffee and they make very tasty ones here, (my little one drank a soda 馃イ).
Although the caf茅 is very close to the beach we didn't go with the idea of swimming and we didn't wear swimming costumes 馃憴 but that didn't stop my little girl one from doing so. As soon as my little girl saw the sea she insisted so much for us to come closer, and as the sun was starting to set we got to the shore to enjoy the view.
My little girl's first reaction was that she didn't like stepping on the sand, I don't like it either, well I already wrote that 馃槃, but that discomfort didn't last long, she soon forgot about it, and she also convinced me to let her go in the water, and how could I refuse if when she saw the beach she got very excited and told me that this was the happiest day, with that argument I couldn't say no to her.
Letting her swim was a good thing because she loved it, she was euphoric, and I was happy every time I saw her cheer up about anything. We walked along the shore looking for rocks and her happiness rubbed off on me 馃槃. She spends a lot of days at home with me and gets bored a lot, that's why she felt so at ease with this outing (us).
It was also good for me to have some time in peace and enjoy the tranquillity, the silence and the view of the sunset over the sea. It was beautiful, and really a much needed therapy.

El verano es la mejor 茅poca para disfrutar de la playa, es un cl谩sico, verano y mar, pero, a m铆 no me gusta mucho esa combinaci贸n. Vivo en una isla rodeada de mar y la verdad no me gusta la playa 馃槸. Eso no significa que no me guste el mar, aunque parezca una contradicci贸n. Me encanta estar a la orilla del mar y disfrutar de la vista y del aroma a salitre, pero no es lo mismo, 馃槃.
La combinaci贸n del sonido de las olas y el color azul es ideal para soltar la ansiedad y por un momento dejar ir las preocupaciones en esas mismas olas. Por eso me gusta tanto ir al Malec贸n de La Habana o a la orilla de la costa. Lo que s铆 no me gusta es estar sobre la arena, bajo el sol y con la piel salada馃き, esa es la que no la considero una combinaci贸n perfecta 馃尀馃寠馃槑.
Aun as铆, hoy vengo a mostrarles una playa, d贸nde pas茅 un rato divertido viendo como mi ni帽a disfrutaba, y d贸nde el cambio de ambiente nos vino muy bien.
La raz贸n por la que vine a este lugar, en compa帽铆a de mi hermana, fue para disfrutar de un caf茅. Aqu铆 hay una cafeter铆a y a esa hora de la tarde mi hermana y yo ten铆amos deseos de tomarnos un caf茅 y aqu铆 los hacen muy sabrosos, (mi peque帽a se bebi贸 un refresco 馃イ).
Aunque la cafeter铆a est谩 muy cerca de la playa no fuimos con la idea de ba帽arnos ni llevamos trajes de ba帽o 馃憴, pero eso no impidi贸 que mi peque帽a si lo hiciera. En cuanto mi ni帽a vio el mar me insisti贸 much铆simo para que nos acerc谩ramos, y como ya el sol se empezaba a ocultar nos llegamos a la orilla para disfrutar la vista.
Lo primera reacci贸n de mi ni帽a fue que no le gust贸 pisar la arena, a m铆 tampoco me gusta, bueno eso ya lo escrib铆 馃槃, pero esa molestia le dur贸 poco tiempo, enseguida se le olvid贸, y tambi茅n me convenci贸 para que la dejara meterse al agua, y como negarme si cuando vio la playa se emocion贸 mucho y me dijo que ese era el d铆a m谩s feliz, con ese argumento no pude decirle que no.
Haberla dejado ba帽arse fue un acierto porque le encant贸, estaba euf贸rica, y yo me alegraba cada vez que la ve铆a animarse por cualquier cosa. Caminamos por la orilla buscando piedras y se me contagi贸 su felicidad 馃槃. Ella pasa muchos d铆as conmigo en casa y se aburre bastante, por eso con esta salida se sinti贸 tan a gusto (nos).
Tambi茅n me sirvi贸 para tener un tiempo en paz y disfrutar de la tranquilidad, el silencio y la vista del atardecer sobre el mar. Fue bello, y realmente una terapia que necesitaba.
