Seb smiled as Libby gasped with  pleasure at the sight below them.  The crystal clear aquamarine waters sparkled  in the bright sunshine, the island that was their destination looked tiny from this height in the vast ocean.

"Welcome to Over Yonder Cay," said Dominic, the portly, fifty something pilot of the seaplane they were flying in.  "It's a magical place, I'm sure you will have an amazing time. Are you staying long?"

"A week," Seb replied, although he was already making plans in his head to bring Libby back for a longer stay over winter break. 

"We're going to be coming in to land now, if you could make sure you're sitting tight.  Don't remove your seatbelts until I tell you."

Libby grabbed hold of Seb's hand nervously.  Seb squeezed it reassuringly, knowing how nervous she got on  landing.   She leant her head on his shoulder.  He kissed her tenderly on her forehead. 

Dominic smiled to himself.  What a beautiful couple these two made.  They were obviously very much in love.  They reminded him of himself and his wife Gabby when they first started dating.  The man could not keep his hands off of her, Dominic had noticed several times how tactile he was. The woman could not keep her eyes off of the man.  The love they felt for each other was palpable. It was a beautiful thing to see.

He circled around one more time before beginning their descent.
