Today we woke up to overcast skies and rain, again. Nathan was out at 6 am to exercise under the palapa. I stayed inside and tried to rest. We ate breakfast once he got back; yogurt, granola, honey, fresh bread, jam and coffee and tried to motivate ourselves for another overcast and rainy day. AroundContinue reading “Water taxi to Colorado?”

Today was the most Dirty Dancing-est of days. It was rainy and overcast. We had no plans, other than to pay our bread bill from yesterday since Denisse said there’d be no diving. So, after breakfast, while it was overcast but dry, we set off for West End to buy groceries and settle up. AsContinue reading “I carried a watermelon.”

A Thanksgiving to remember We woke up rather early, and I worked on the blog while Nathan worked out on the dock. He’s so weird. When he came back to our room from his exercise escapades, we fixed breakfast, ate quickly and brought our coffee up to the deck. We relaxed and drank our coffeeContinue reading “I have your panty!”

I woke up late today, and Nathan wasn’t in our room. He had told me that he was gonna get up early to do something, but I forgot what. So I just readied myself until he came back, dripping wet. Paddleboarding, that’s what it was. We both showered (If you only knew how rare thisContinue reading “You can get a full meal at the Booty Bar!”

Today, we woke up in Monkey Lair, knowing that we had to move back to Crabby Cabin. So, goodbye room with a view, and back to the room with a bigger fridge, and slightly more privacy. You win some, you lose some. One of the advantages of Crabby Cabin is that you can get intoContinue reading “I’m ok going with more people, if I can still hold Denzel’s hand”

We had no plans for today, except to go diving with Denzel at 3:15, so we lingered over two cups of coffee this morning. The weather was not supposed to be nice, so when the sun was still shining by 9:30 or so, I told Nathan we should get our suits on and head downContinue reading “Dinner and an agouti, or two!”

WhatsApp is a big thing down here. I’ve arranged for our diving via WhatsApp. Everyone, including the restaurants and water taxis, can be WhatsApp’d. So yesterday at some point I decided that the best way to get more confidence and experience diving, is to go more often, and I WhatsApp’d Denisse to see if weContinue reading “I was just trying not to die.”

Today we had an 8 am date at the dive shop. We were supposed to meet with Denisse to chat about diving during our trip and potentially book some diving. When we arrived, Denzel helped us out with the paperwork, fit us for BCDs, and jotted our pertinent details down. When Denisse arrived, I toldContinue reading “Can I be done?”

Last night, we walked to West Bay for dinner and had pizza at Bananarama. The pizza was good, and the waiter was delightful. Not sure how to spell his name, maybe just Kevin, but pronounced Key-ven. We walked back to our place, and I put the finishing touches on the blog, and we went toContinue reading “Yah, Mama!”

We started out this week stressed, but with a positive vibe. Last week, I decided to make a big change, or rather, I finalized it. After 5 and a half years, I accepted a new position with an exciting start-up and resigned from my current role. Bittersweet for sure, but we are excited for whatContinue reading “#RevengeTravel”
