I know what makes Pharrell Williams 'happy'

An action-packed weekend of activities in Virginia Beach

- BY MARK WALDRON

magine the scene... you open your window and look out as the recently-risen sun casts a delicate glow over the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

An offshore breeze creates white horses of spray behind the waves as they roll towards the shore, break and caress the golden sands of the beach

You watch a hardy clutch of surfers, clad from head to toe in neoprene to ward off the out-of-season chills, enjoying the thrills of their watery playground until your eye is drawn beyond them as a pod of dolphins break through the surface to perform their own acrobatics.
