My old bedroom was west facing and my favourite thing in the world was to sit on the windowsill left leg along the outside of the window and right leg inside (yes I sat half in and half out of a bedroom window I'm strange like that) and watch the sun set. The colors ect just really helped me chill. I've also sat atop cliffs and on beaches and watched it sinking in cornwall and devon two of the most beautiful places in the uk. I'm in my new room now which is south east facing so I see the sun rise whenever I do an all nighter, the weekend of the meetup I saw 3 dawns consecutively without sleep it was nuts. I even took photos and posted them on my facebook. I've only seen the sun rise once from a beach but then we didn't get to see much since the beach was south western facing. Still nice though. If I do go to Egypt this spring I'll get some pictures of the egyptian sunset/sunrise because I've seen other peoples holiday photos and it's amazing.
