from the horizon to within 50 yds of where I lie, unless broken only by long lines of creamy rollers washing onto the white sand.
Away to the right, riding on the horizon close in shore, lye the supply ships, but for these the sea is empty. All the sky is palest blue deepening to orange round the sun.
