Beach Bum

I realized I haven't blogged in a whole 4 days. I'd post some pictures, but I also realized I haven't taken any yet. So I thought I'd give you some high lights and the low light of vacation so far.

Highs
- The temps are just right, not to warm not to cold, with a slight breeze to keep me cool while sunning in the sand. The pm storms are also a blessing as they keep me inside and do not allow over sunning.
- So far I've saved two jelly fish and a cute little star fish from early deaths. I decided to save the jellies because I wasn't in the water and thus didn't need to worry about being stung.
- Saw a school of 8ish dolphins. Again, no camera, so no pics.

Low
- After the rain storm yesterday Mark and I took a cart ride around the island. We drove through a semi wooded area and were attacked by a swarm of almost-killer mosquitoes. I was wearing a t-shirt and capris, but the little demons managed to bite through my clothes. I now have roughly 7 mosquito bites on my little beach bum. I could post a picture of my poor little beach bum, but I'll spare everyone.

Tonight we're going to see a sea turtle nest be dug up to see if there are any little guys who didn't make it out on their own. I'll post pics of those (if there are any) later this week.

Sadly, there were no sea turtles waiting for us, and the 78 others watching, to unearth them. We'll just have to wait until next time.

The Boy will be here in 3 days and 18 hours.
