watch a sunrise

When it comes to traveling down the road of life, I usually speed. Then, I look back and wonder where the time went. I’ve never watched a sunrise, but I’d like to do that sometime in the near future.

Completed this by accident today. It was lovely watching everything be illuminated. I hope to take time out to do that more often. I would love to see it in a place that wasn’t obscured by houses as well. Worth getting up for.

I keep missing the sunrises, but there have been some beautiful sunsets. Wishing I lived somewhere that had a better view of them.

East Cape, New Zealand. The first place to greet the new day.

not a morning person, at all. this one will be hard, but i should be able to manage just one. although it may be from staying up all night, not getting up early. there is a hot air balloon ride i have been thinking of taking lately – it goes up with the sun, so i guess that would count. but, like i said, i have been thinking about it. just don’t do mornings…

This is something I used to do regularly, whether by accident or luck. I usually didn’t go to sleep until around 6 or 7AM and was rewarded with bird-song and a multicolored sky.

Now, I fall asleep anywhere from 2 to 4AM, missing out on the sun completely. I can’t decide whether to alter my schedule forwards or backwards to try to make this happen again more frequently.

Suprisingly, I’ve never seen a sunrise in my life.

I was going to just say…enough said, but I actually think this one involves a note too. I’ve never been a morning person (unlike my rise at dawn family) and I have never seen a sunrise. I have enough sunsets under my belt to last me a lifetime (thank you parents for raising me in San Diego and letting me spend many a summer day/evening at the beach). A sunrise on the otherhand…not so much. I’m ready.

I’d forgotten this was a goal, and I did it spontaneously one morning about a month ago. Unfortunately the morning I picked didn’t have the clearest weather, so it wasn’t as gorgeous as it would’ve been. It’s nice to be up when it’s dark and see everything get light again.

It’s called working in the computer lab until the you began to see the sun rise through the library’s tinted windows.
