As I followed the road as it meandered along the cliff tops, I looked out to the ocean. Everyone does while on this stretch of road. One can’t help but doing so. The ocean is suddenly in front of you.

The surfers are checking out the swell, is it worth stopping by later to catch some waves?

The visitors to the island just to sit in awe of the vast expanse ocean, and if the surfers are out, to capture their movements.

And even for the regular commuter, just to enjoy the natural beauty.

It is not unusual for traffic to slow over this stretch.

Today this ocean is like a mill pond. Still and calm, with hardly a ripple upon it. Though the surfers are still out there in force, looking to catch whatever the sea will offer up.
