I like the sea best when it is The Ocean, with its waves crashing on deep rocky cliffs.
First fell in love with the ocean when I stood in front of it two years ago during the US Leaf Tour in the coast of Ogunquit, Maine.
On this trip, I saw the other end of the Atlantic Ocean. It was just as awesome.
We were at Cabo da Roca, which is part of the Lisbon Coast and officially the most Western point of Europe. Interesting to think that at one point, the civilized world might have thought it to be the furthest point one could walk till one reached the end of the world. The Portuguse poet's Land's End.
Where does the sea end and the sky begin?
According to GPS equipment, we were at:
Latitude - 38' 47' North
Longitude - 9' 30' West
It was a good place for one to spend the afternoon talking to the ocean.
