The beach - almost
I love the sound of the ocean. Is there anything better. I would argue no, unless of course you are talking about the sound of children's laughter - that's pretty high up there too. When we lived in England we were never very far away from a beach. We lived in South Wales for a while and could be found sat on the beach, or in our car overlooking the sea if it was raining. We would drive out to the beach every Sunday afternoon whenever possible and just sit, rain or shine.
When we immigrated to the U.S that was one of the things we missed the most...it just took too long to get to the coast and we missed it. Lakes became our second place of refuge and we LOVE them. Nothing beats the smell of the sea...but lakes with large waves come a close second.
If you need to find somewhere to relax I would recommend driving to a large body of water and just sit. For me nothing relaxes me as quickly or easily. It seems to be genetic - the kids love it too.
