We arrange a delicious meal and surprise our celebrant. We also had a good time decorating the cottage we rented and singing karaoke there. For an overnight visit, we rented the room above the cottage. We also held a camp on their wonderful white sand beach, where we shared our deepest thoughts and life experiences. It's fantastic to have them together.

| We had planned to have a campfire here, but tourists are not permitted to do this at their beach resort. Instead, we formed a circle with table sand and enjoyed the gathering with my pals. Some of us set up camp and spent the morning on the beach. It was really cold with the fresh ocean breeze, but it was magnificent to watch the sun rise. |
