Re: The first site you ever visited.

We stayed in a place called Levant. Travelled overnight and got to the north coast somewhere a little further east as the sun came up.

The sea was blue.

No. The sea was BLUE. It was sea with the contrast turned upto the max. Here on the banks of the Irish Sea, I'm used to a sea that's a drab dull grey, and that's on a sunny day.

At night, we went walking. In the sky there were stars. Hardly any orange glow. Just clear all the way to the edge of the universe.

The landscape was rugged, barren. Almost a monoculture. Just rock and grass and gorse. Hardly a tree to speak of. You could see the shape of the earth beneath it. Almost a wilderness to us city dwellers.

And just to put the cherry on top, it was my holiday with a woman who I fell deeply in love with, and eventually married.

Going all misty eyed here. Perhaps next year we will make it down there.
