Fishy Sea Air

Here we are in San Agustinillo. It is hot. And muggy. And pretty wonderful. It's hard to believe that we are here. As Joel mentioned yesterday it is like a completely different trip. It's incredibly green and all the houses have rooves made of palm leaves and the beach is beautiful. Some of the new cabañas being built are really cool looking and this place is obviously going to grow in the future. For right now it's pretty small and quiet though. Especially this time of year.

So spend the mornings sitting on the balcony and watching all the early swimmers trying to convince their girlfriends-wives to come and swim with them and the boats going in and out on turtle tours and for fishing.

There are also dogs everywhere here. Normal looking dogs with owners and everything! And tons of french people. But not the nice french tourists, the stuck up french ex-pats who will teach you to surf or sell you expensive juice but not be happy about it.
Possibly this is just my perspective.

Anyway! Now I must go and rent a boogie board and log my time in the surf. I would have put up a picture of Joel and I fixing our mosquito net which is a startling bright pink color but the connection is too slow here for pictures to ever finish, so that will have to wait.

until then!

Fantástico!

Oh man I am so jealous - you can't even imagine. I think I know where to take my next vacation.

happy thanksgiving,kira and joel!!! We miss you, and everyone says hello and sends hugs. We've been playing cranium (gramma shareen and your aunt kris from S carolina got bored), then charades until they got tired of me having to act out dick van dyke, then the cock and bull story,and now gramma is teaching stuart, maggie, and jessica to play texas hold 'em.

much love to you both -- sounds like you're in a lovely place -- it is sunny and beautiful here, but no one will be jumping in any water as it is about 38 degrees.

miss you -- mahdee
