Wow. What a great day. We leave for the home country in 5 days, and today was the best day snorkeling I've had in MONTHS! It's amazing how much life has 'grown' on our favorite stretch of beach. I have video and pics to keep me blogging for a decent number of days!
This video is about 35m off the shoreline and in about 4m of water. The video, however, was shot at the surface. We swim out to a series of lines and buoys which are teeming with life. I'd LOVE to see some artificial reef more in use! I'm amazed at what shows up to live off some old rope. Munchkin #2 comes with us. We have a small inflatable boat she sits in with her doll. She plays while the husband and I take turns hanging onto the rope on the boat while the other takes pictures and shoots video. Loads of fun. Munchkin #1 is content to sit on the beach, preferably with a book.
We had a very special family (the father is a Father) over this evening from our favorite place of prayer. They are looking at purchasing a Wii game system and wanted to try ours out. It made for a pleasant evening. I made chocolate chip cookies and there was plenty of tea. It's so nice to be able to host people. And I especially love having willing consumers for my cookies!
Tomorrow, each of the munchkins is having two friends over to swim. The husband bought two packs of 'hot dogs' and huge package of frozen curly fries. So again, we are planning for another lovely day outside.
Thinking of lovely, at about 11am today, the temperature was already at 41C (105.8F). It's 9:15pm, and it's still 90F outside. At least there's not much sand blowing at the moment.
Hope you're having a lovely day wherever you are at the moment.
