Well, today we woke up to hear the pattering of rain outside. Hence, no snorkeling trip. The sky was dark gray and the sea angry. Thunder and lightening were plentiful. It did roll on through later in the morning, but it was too late to do a full day trip. So, we are on the list for tomorrow. The clouds are still hanging around, so pray for better weather!
So, instead, we walked around town, had fresh smoothies, bought some bread from Jon the bakerman, ate a typical lunch of coconut rice, stew chicken and slaw. Then, we layed on the beach and swam in the caribbean which is VERY warm. It's like a bath.
We're gonna head out to happy hour in a bit and then on to dinner. It gets dark so early here, around 6:30. this is very deceiving compared to Seattle where the sun has been setting around 9:30.
However, we are safe, enjoying ourselves, and unwinding to the slow and easy pace. There's really no rush around here at all, for anything. Such a change. A nice one.

I'm so incredably jealous of you right now! It's sounds like a taste of heaven there, Or maybe you just have great writing skills:) I'm glad you get to unwind for awhile - God bless and say hi to your mom for me!

I'm so glad you arrived safely! I was thinking of you both all day! I hope you get to see some amazing sea creatures, and relax in the sun. I miss you, love you!
Hurray... I am so glad that you guys are safely enjoying your trip so far.. I have been waiting to hear how you are.. So glad that you are slowing down and enjoying the beauty around you. Its not the same without you around here.. We love you dearly!
Hope the weather improves for you today. It's finally sunny here - yay! Sounds like you're both about "3 clicks". Enjoy!!!
Sounds like you and Susan are making the most of your trip even when the weather throws a wrench in your plans. Good thing rain doesn't cramp your style! I can't wait to see some photos of the jungle down there. It sounds gorgeous!!

Hey son, it's me buddy. Hope all is well. We rented out your condo to a nice hispanic couple with 9 children while you are away. Alyssa says they are friendly however she is having a tough time handling the spicy food and I guess the artwork that was on the walls is all broken because they play soccer, sorry, football inside. We will send you what is left of the rent checks after we buy beer and pretzles for everyone. Seriously, I hope you are having the time of your life (cue the Patrick Swayze song) and that you really get to see some sharks, especially the whale shark. Awesome. Both you and mom really need to soak this all in, you have earned it. Cheers and I can't wait to see more posts. Add pictures if you can! Love you both.
