Vacation, for me, is associated with palm trees on the seashore and people chilling in them, watching the sunset. Today I started wondering why that is, since most of my actual vacations featured neither palm trees nor the sea.
After spending fifteen minutes digging through my memory, I figured out that it's a frame from a Soviet cartoon I watched as a kid. That's what vacation looks like in my head.
Let's start with the palm trees. Chaotically hanging leaves, coconuts beneath them, and below the coconuts — a slightly curved trunk. On the other side — another palm tree, just the same.
Next — the lounge chairs. Two crossed sticks. A little higher and to the right — two more sticks, just like those. A piece of fabric stretched between them. Let's add one more — mirrored.
That's it. Vacation is ready.
