Simple treasures

The sky deepened from amber to rose, then from rose to violet, wrapping the sea in a fuse of colour too beautiful to capture 

The family watched , picture perfect and seemingly frozen in time.  knowing this was the final sunset of a week they would one day remember more fondly than they could know in that moment.
 
Behind them waited packed suitcases and the certainty of tomorrow's journey home, but ahead of them remained a few lingering minutes of the wondrous breeze , gently cooling their sunkissed faces.

As the sand filled shores disappeared beneath it's matalic seas of water, they began telling each others favourite snippet stories during their time together, And in a leisurely stroll the family walked back into reality, all  smiling with laughter
