You won't believe what just came out of Natalie's mouth....."I hate to say it, but I will relish the day when we go to Burger King and sit in an air-conditioned eating establishment." It only took 5 days for this to happen.
Gorgeous sunset from our balcony!
Today was pretty much more of the same. We went to the beach early and stayed about 2 hours. We came back to the condo, took a nap, watched the kids fight, went down to 5th Avenue to buy snorkel masks from a French Dive Shop. Sydney liked the dive lady because she was from southern France. We walked back in the heat and humidity with, of course, the kids complaining of the heat, humidity, and "why do we have to walk everywhere?" add a little whine to "why do we have to walk everywhere? much better! It really is not that bad. In fact, today was really nice up until 3pm, and then got really nasty with humidity.
We are having a lot fun just relaxing and reading books. Sydney has finished two of her chapter books already and Collin is almost done with book 5 of Percy Jackson. Natalie is struggling along with her boring Spanish book, and Jay is almost done with his first book of the trip. The condo is very nice to live in. Plenty of room for everyone. The pool is awesome. There are only 5 English channels to chose from, so TV has not been a part of our lives at all.
So far, the local establishments have been great to eat at. Tonight, we are eating at UTIL PASTA COMPANY. The kids are actually excited about eating tonight. They usually bring their books and read or try to catch flies like Mr. Miyagi. Sydney caught one the other night at El Fogon.
Tomorrow we are planning a trip back to Akumel. We are going try one more time to see the turtles.
