Twilight
Sunday, March 29, 2009

Before leaving the beach today, I decided to take some snapshots of the sun setting. I tried to capture the twilight phase and this is what I got.

FYI: Twilight is defined as the soft, diffused light from the sky when the sun is below the horizon, either from daybreak to sunrise or, more commonly, from sunset to nightfall. It is not teen angst with vampires.

Walkway to Eternity
Wednesday, November 19, 2008

A while back, I went out on the Pensacola Beach Fishing Pier at night. I decided to take a picture using my phone and see how bad or good it would turn out.

The fishing pier is very eerie at night. Being one of the longest fishing piers on the Gulf of Mexico (1471 feet long), you normally can't see antything into the darkness of the ocean. All you can hear are the waves crashing on pier.

When you reach the middle part of the pier, you can't see where the pier starts or ends in either direction. It's sometimes quite disorienting. I always feel like I'm on some walkway to eternity whenever I reach this point.

Winding Down the Party
Saturday, August 09, 2008

As my vacation draws to an end, I decided to spend my last day at the beach with a few friends. Jen, Rodney, Mike, and I spent the afternoon baking in the sun and floating in the Gulf.

We ate lunch at Flounders and had dinner at Papa's Pizza on the Boardwalk. We ate and talked about the old times and the crazy experiences we had when we worked at the University.

The highlight of the day was the time we spent floating. We were in there for a couple of hours and I must say that my legs are very tired now.

I'm also dealing with a little sunburn which is something that I'm not really used to being that I am a Pacific Islander. I guess my skin isn't as young as it used to be, or maybe perhaps it's just way too frigging hot out there. So during my vacation, I had to quickly learn the proper use of sun screen.

When the sun set, we walked around the boardwalk at Casino Beach. We also found some stargazers out on the beach who showed us Jupiter and the Moon on their telescopes.

Now, as I blog this, I'm doing some late night laundry with my beach clothes. I want try to minimize any cleaning up that I might have to do tomorrow. Tomorrow, I think I'm going to sleep in and just chill out at home. Maybe I'll watch some dvds or play with my Eee PC some more.
All in all, I really had a blast during my birthday vacation. I think everyone who turns thirty needs to spend a week at the beach and get away from everything for a short while. so that you can celebrate the last 30 and then get ready for the next 30 ahead of you.

Another Day by the Gulf
Wednesday, August 06, 2008

This is day five of my mini-vacation. I have decided to spend most of my remaining days on Pensacola Beach. I spent part of the afternoon here and I think I'll be returning tomorrow morning.

BTW, this post is being made on my EEE PC which arrived late Tuesday night. I am currently at the Gulf Breeze Whataburger grabbing some food and leeching off their WiFi to check my email and track some packages that I sent out.
