Week 629: Catching People Doing Things Right
Walking across the park one morning, I passed a young father and his very young son.

People staying at the resort jumped as enthusiastically as I did into the custom of feeding the fish with leftover bread from meals. I enjoyed that process, along with simply floating amongst them, allowing the sea to rock me and offer a way of relaxing not readily available in my busy, urban life.
