Then, a friend of mine and I drove to another beach the same week. It seemed to be very out-of-the-way. We drove through villages and palm tree groves and on and on. But, it was worth it! The beach was astounding! And there were free inner tubes in a pile right on the beach, so I grabbed one.
The water was just so warm and the gentle motion of the tides was so soothing. I wanted to live there forever.
But, the best part was when we were leaving! We saw herds of the cutest monkeys you can imagine. One of them had a teensy baby on it's stomach, clinging to it. Oh, my!
Some people who seemed to be locals were giving them junk food. The monkeys loved it. One of them had a big pink round piece of junk food that he was treasuring and showing it off in front of his peers. Next time, I'll bring some peanuts.
Then, there was Port Dixon.
I always thought that beach was filthy, but this time, we found a nice, clean white sandy beach. Although I didn't go swimming, I did go to visit the seaside resort there called the Grand Lexis. It was inspiring. We just walked around it and sat down in one of the airy dining rooms for a coffee.
Port Dixon is fun. It's got all the mod coms.
