It was my first trip to Cottesloe that made me fall in love with Perth, seven years ago. I remember being so overwhelmed by its majestic view. Blue skies. Soft white sand. Clear waters. I took SO many photos at the beach, so I can document how beautiful the view and the atmosphere. I grew up in the urban jungle where we have to drive out for hours to see a decent looking beach. Seeing the horizon, how blue and sunny the beach was, it was love at first sight for me.
Since then, I have been to Cottesloe beach countless times. In all seasons. Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Cold, Wet, Hot, Dry. Taken hundreds of the same photos/videos. Every time I go to Cottesloe, she still manages to impress me. Most of my friends (even Don) would prefer to go to other beaches that are more private, quiet and less busy. I'll admit, there are more beautiful beaches, but I don't know there's something about Cottesloe. The people (tourists), the buildings around it, the pubs, people dressing up, the beach, the view, the character, everything! It doesn't grow old.
If someone was to ask me how to describe my love for Don. It's exactly like my attraction or my soft spot for Cottesloe beach. Ever since we started dating, we have been in contact every day. Every day. We pretty much know everything about each other. A-Z. We are best friends. We tell each other things we shouldn't tell. He annoys me. He makes me laugh. He comforts me. He pushes me. Every day it's something different with Don, just like Cottesloe beach. He keeps me wanting more. From him. From myself. From life.
