Ode to Joy - Beautiful Sunday

Submission for #BeautifulSunday initiated by @ace108

I could hear Beethoven in the background and just fly from sheer triumph. A long 13 hrs travel and rough roads has brought us to this magical place in the eastern part of the Philippines. Perfect golden yellow sand and clear water. The facial expression of my daughter cannot be matched in showing what joy truly is.

This small vessel along with an experienced boatman delivered us through the rough waves along the way. We almost did not feel worries as it was a beautiful day.

Crystal clear water, no pollution, no rubbish, not over crowded with people, no noise. In fact there are only 20 huts or so in this island. Just the sound of nature around you and the sound of the gentle waves.

The tide was low which has created this artwork from nature.

My daughter could no longer hold back and rushed out to enjoy the cool water. As I watched her bask in the sun how I wish we could just leave everything behind and live life. Back to basics with no complications away from all the troubles of the world. I could just be a fisherman or a seaweed farmer. How I envy the people who lives here living a simple life yet I know they hear Beethoven's Ode to Joy in the background everyday.

Hope you enjoyed by my #BeautifulSunday and thanks again to @ace108 for creating this wonderful challenge.
