The whistle of the frosty wind is penetrating a tiny wedge on my window sill and I -- curled under mounds of thick fabrics -- nervously watch the leafless trees outside, stripped from their former splendor by the impending brutality of winter. Yes, winter -- truly the season of one's discontent. But instead of wallowing in self-pity about the changing season, I prefer to reminisce and celebrate a truly great summer, probably the greatest season of sunshine I ever experienced. I know people (and travellers specifically) love to throw around the adjective "life-changing" to describe their trips and adventures. It is used so flippantly, the word seems to have lost its true meaning. That is why I hesitate to use it to describe my summer but at this moment, I can't think of any other adjective. Below are my favorite memories of the summer.
Fort Lauderdale
Gazing outward: window view at B Ocean Hotel
Echostage, Washington, DC
