A warm caribbean air is blowing across the water.....
Sitting back with your toes in the sand you hear only the melodic crashing of crystal clear blue-green waves. As the island sun is caressing your skin with warmth......you close your eyes......this must be paradise. The sweet sounds of the steel drum band from a nearby street festival awaken your senses.....for a moment. The aromas of a small village capture your nose as they prepare for a summer feast.
You can almost taste it.
Slow roasted meats bathed in dark, rich peppery sauces.
Sweet, tangy citrus infused with deep smoked spices.
Lively coconuts and lime....delicious sweet onions and fresh herbs!
At night the festival comes to life. The streets of the village are filled with celebration. The people dance and sing. They feast on rich foods. The cool citrus drinks dizzy the senses. Your soul is awakened with the mystic rhythm of the drums and you dance. And you dance.... The streets of the village bask in the glow of the bonfires and you once again feel that warm, gentle air blowing across the water. It lightly rocks the colored party lanterns strung thoughout the town.
You own this moment. You take a deep breath. It's unlike any other moment.......you close your eyes....
