It is hard to come up with things to write about on a trip like this one because we aren’t really doing anything of any interest to anybody. This is merely intended to be a break from winter in North America and in doing that we are typically pretty lazy. Although in Denver we have been fortunate to escape the winter’s wrath experienced by many other parts of the country this year.

As mentioned in the first post of this trip, we do love this part of our hemisphere. We think that the water and beaches are superb. This year our house is terrific and our landlord is incredible. But we have found the islands in this area of the world to be a bit of a challenge in finding quality, diverse food which makes us long just a little bit for our two weeks in Mexico last year where the house, water and beach were not as satisfying but the cuisine was head and shoulders over what we have found here so far.

So this week we have spent time on a couple of beaches that are a mile from our house, searched for the best grocery store we could find and taken a lovely day sail on a catamaran operated by Aristocats. We highly recommend Aristocats if you ever find yourself here…small group, nice boat and a really great lunch prepared on board by Steve the owner and captain.

Our friends Dale and Debbie Cummins returned to the real world on Thursday after a too short visit with us. Coming on Saturday will be Dave and Lisa Wangsness from Big Canoe, Georgia and my brother Paul and his friend Jill from Indianapolis. Lisa and I grew up together in little Liberty, Indiana so everyone else gets a gold star for suffering through those discussions.

So until later I will just post some pictures of the fun and frivolity here as we partake in excessive laziness.
