Dawn to Dusk at Rockaway

2AM and I was already awake

Dawn to Dusk at Rockaway

2AM and I was already awake. That’s what happens when you’re jet-lagged from a trip to Hong Kong. As I was bemoaning the 12-hour time difference, I brainstormed how I could take advantage of the situation and came up with this great idea: sunrise at the Rockaways! I have always felt a fondness for beach life and surfing in my heart but getting up super-early has never really been my thing. However, now with the “help” of jetlag I could experience the unforgettable process of the colors changing as the sun was rising. Also, I got a bonus – I saw whales splashing their tales on the water and making fountains!!!
