water and more water

So sad! Jamie, our dive buddy, couldn't go diving this trip. She had a pretty scary high fever that turned into a cold. So she had to settle for staying on the surface this trip. Spending part of a day at Hotel Barracuda did bring back some wonderful memories of previous dive trips when the girls were in high school. Fun to think about our grandkids joining us in our underwater adventures in years to come! Alex certainly is her mother's daughter. She loves the water! Then again, what's not to like?

Burying Papa's foot in the sand is pretty fun, too, even for a girl who doesn't usually like to have stuff on her hands.

After playing chicken with the waves, we all said our goodbyes to the sun. Jamie then gave Alex a little lesson in astronomy. She said that the sun was going to swim to the other side of the island and be there in the morning for us. That's the engineer that we know and love.

We were happy the sun made it to the other side the next day. This is one of a few protected coves that is perfect for little people. Okay, us big people too!
