The air in the morning feels crisper, the leaves are changing colors, and winding down with a warm cup of tea regains its almost-forgotten appeal after a busy summer.

We didn't really do those beach walks in the summer but always when the sky started to turn gray and the days became colder. My sister and I always took out our warmest scarfs and played in the sand while my parents walked behind us. I really loved those Saturday or Sunday mornings where we were all together. I think October (when its not raining) is the perfect month to go to the beach for uitwaaien (to blow out), to walk in the wind and take a break and clear your head, relieve the stress or forget ones problems.
