No Rain

 Hooray Hooray Hooray….no rain today. We got lucky the sun came out a lot today.

We decided to go to the restaurant instead of the buffet for breakfast.  It was pretty windy out but we endured.  My breakfast was delicious!  Don’s was not bad.  I think he prefers the buffet.  

We spent all day on the beach.  We got front row loungers.  The staff was extremely attentive.  They brought us a bucket of ice with water in it and they periodically came and freshened the ice and brought more water.  At one point they came and brought us fresh towels and set them up for us.  It was impressive!

We got in the ocean.  It was a little chilly when we first went in but after about 30 seconds it was warm and pleasant.  It had some really big waves so it was fun to play in.  

When we came back to the room to get cleaned up, we stopped at the concierge desk and Art ask them to order us some shrimp cocktail.  Less than 30 minutes later we were eating delicious shrimp.

For dinner we went to the Japanese restaurant.  It was delicious.  They had excellent sushi.  I could have eaten a bunch more.  It is customary for the restaurants to bring some kind of appetizer while you are waiting for your food.  Tonight our cute gal brought an appetizer and we both looked at it like what on earth.  It looked like a tentacle sea creature growing out of a rock.  We both thought no thanks I am not eating that.  But it was fried tapioca.  Actually it was pretty good.  Art tried it and said “oh it’s packing peanuts”…..hahaha it was kinda like rice cakes only with flavor.  

After dinner we sat out and listen to a couple perform.  The girl sang and the guy played the piano.  They were really good.  I was sad when they stopped.  

I was supposed to do the spa hydro therapy tomorrow but after listening to Art’s experience. (Funny as it was). I decided it wasn’t for me so I cancelled it. I would rather go to the beach. 

All the staff here is so attentive and friendly.  It is so great being here.
