Another day of paradise in the rain - alas, what to do to keep us entertained. We did go snorkling by the reef on our beach - quite amazing things down there (makes you think twice when you go swimming in the ocean). Then massages on the deck shielded by the rain, a delicious lunch, reading time (I finished Suite Franccaise - i enjoyed it, the story behind the book and its author is the best part), a game of scrabble (Dan won, i give credit where credit is deserved), a nice nap, another delicious dinner (chicken & prawn sushi, tomato soup with home made rolls, deliciously cooked fillet wiht potatoes and a mushroom sauce, and white chocolate mousse served in a frozen coconut shell - YUM!).

We have our resident lizards, each about 5 inches in length, who we affectionately call Emily and Elana. They live in the roof of the

We also have a ton of mosquitos - dan isn't taking too well to them, but they are bareable - but we do have the battle marks to prove our stay. Besides that, we have a nice array of other flying guests, long centipedes, and other wonderful natural creatures.
