My father was right. There was a peace in the middle of the ocean like no other. A chance to look at night skies unblemished by light pollution. Just a pure net of darkened hues pinned up by stars of various luminosity and size. It was magic I’d never truly experienced before. There, accessible from my own balcony, were both the lullaby of ocean waves and sky full of stars to wish me to sleep. He told me stories about nights at sea, but he didn’t mention how beautiful it was to wake up to a morning sky over a calm ocean. There was a peace I needed waking up each day at sea, and that peace is part of why going on a cruise with my best friends will always be my favorite vacation.
