You make seeing the ocean a must for me. Though I have never seen it, played in it, or even ran my fingers through it I do understand what it is that the ocean does everyday for many people. When I was a wee little thing I have always been fond of moving to Alaska. Yes you are probably thinking how did Alaska come into this.. Well Alaskans use the ocean for many things and without it living in Alaska would be like trying to live in a volcano , nearing high impossible. I have done many many years of research on what it would take to live there and yes I do not have to choose next to the ocean but I feel there is many things in which I can learn or we all can learn from having the ocean at our finger tips. There is a survival skill that has to be learned when it comes to the ocean just as there is survival skills we must learn to live upon the land that we do and it's truly all natural. One day I will lay upon the ocean and when I do I will remember this read! Happy travels to you and I look forward to reading your new and exciting adventures!
