Today we did very little.
Caro spent some time at the beach, swimming in the ocean or spending time poolside. I was content to sit on the balcony or in the room. I did venture out to the nearby 7-11 to pick up some snacks and coke and came back with a cold beer for Caro to enjoy by the pool.
This morning I made the last FaceTime (this trip) to Pat catching up on things, and while I was doing that Caro took her IPad down to the pool (which has much better internet) and spoke to all three kids via FaceTime.
In the afternoon we went to a new (to us) street food restaurant and had a couple wonderful plates of food.
In fact as I write this note we are back in the room after watching the sunset and are still full from this afternoon’s food so will hold off going up for supper until about 7:30 PM
I am essentially packed for our early getaway to the airport. We have about 15 minutes of time to eat our buffet breakfast and then head off. I want to be at the airport early because once again, we have issues with an airline website and I want to give us plenty of time to straighten things out. When I made reservations I (fortunately) took a screen shot of our ticket code and got confirmation that we had paid but I never received the email with our boarding information etc. Sigh!!
Later: So tonight we went to the same place to eat as this afternoon. The supper was outstanding! For dessert Caro wanted sticky rice, with mango and ice cream. It comes with a coconut syrupy topping that you pour over the rice. To eat you take a spoonful of rice, with a piece of mango and then follow it with a small amount of ice cream. My goodness but it was good!
We also found a money change place which gives much better exchange rates than we got before (especially US one dollar bills). Too bad we found the place now and not five days ago!,
