The last entry was about last Sunday. Monday is when Jenny Batten arrived. Girls went shopping downtown. Jenny arrived a little early and was up in room talking with Marlin.
Hard to remember what we did which day or night. Mom and Donna, now known as the "Madonnas," can't remember either. They are sitting here trying to help me. Not so much.
Each evening most of the group gathered for happy hour at the pool and watched the sunset picture.
It was windy Tuesday and Wednesday. There was a plan to go on glass bottom boat and snorkeling but too windy.
Tuesday we gathered to watch the inauguration. The hotel staff was very interested in watching, too.
Wednesday we rented a minivan and eight of us went to the other side of the island. Saw crocodiles (cocodrilos). Walked up the light house which someone said they weren't going to do (that would be Mom). Took an open bus/truck thing to a beautiful beach and snorkled.
Used the same the same eight passenger minivan to take ELEVEN people to Pancho's Backyard...a nice restaurant near hotel. Donna got the fun ride.Thursday was a calmer day and glass bottom boat ride happened. Here is the very small glass bottom boat. Donna was not too thrilled with the boat. She was very brave and thought for sure it was going to a bigger boat. It didn't.
It was a wet and wild ride. Passed the big cruise ships on way to see fish and coral. Jenny, Jill, Alicia, Bunny and I snorkeled from boat and Mom, Donna and Pat Quinn watched through glass bottom (hog trough).
Friday Jenny returned to Minnesota. Marlin, Jill, Alicia, Pat Quinn and I went to Chankanab, the national park where we could snorkel.
At some point during the week Kathy Just, Jill, Donna, Amy and Pat Quinn got sick at various times and for lengths.
Rose, Pat Quinn, Loretta and Kathy have already left for airport. They are on the 3pm flight. The rest of us fly out at 7pm.
