I wish I could go back to summer at the beach. Unfortunately, that won't be possible. The sun, sand, and sea were so beautiful and calming. I miss being able to relax and soak up the sun's rays. The sound of the waves crashing against the shore was so soothing. I wish I could experience it all again.
