The Longing

It has been a very long time since I last had a true and relaxing vacation. And I am dying to have another one! Though I am not really in a capacity for a luxurious vacation, I am longing for some kind of relaxation in the next weeks that I'm going home for the delivery of my baby.

I am dreaming of relaxing in tranquil blue waters, with white sandy beaches, in a hammock tied under coconut trees. There I will lay wearing comfy swimsuit that will suit my bulging tummy with sunglasses and a big beach hat. A server will bring me a nice cold coconut juice which I will drink with a straw directly from the fruit. Then I will prop open a nice book to read while enjoying the rushing of the waves to the shore in the background.

At dinner, I will succumb to a delectable and sumptuous feast. With large buttered and grilled prawns, squid and lobster. I will douse the barbecued pork belly in a nice spicy sauce and eat it with a pot of steaming hot rice. Then I will drink a refreshing green mango smoothie and have some sweet ripe mangoes as dessert.

Before going to bed, I'll pamper myself with a hot bath in my cottage with the bathroom and tub overlooking the silent waters now with purplish glow in the night air. Then a masseuse will come in to give me a relaxing massage that will soothe me to a long and restful sleep.

Ah, how I long that all these be true!
