It is so easy to lose track of time in this beautiful place which looks and feels like paradise. And did I mention that I am a SPOILED AMERICAN GIRL???? I am lazing around, reading books, having massages, swimming in the infinity pool, watching fish swim through the windows in the floor and by the sink as I brush my teeth, eating amazing meals and just generally grooving on life - Bob read me the NJ weather this morning and I'm seriously contemplating never, ever going back!
Today's big decisions were what time to eat dinner (can you believe you have to make that decision early in day - I thought this was vacation) and whether or not to go out on a Hobie cat once the winds picked up (too tired by 5:00 - needed a nap :-) which may seem silly having just spent a week sailing, but I have decided that I need to learn more about sailing than how to decorate the boat (my favorite job), how to cook yummy meals and plan tasty happy hours and how to drive her in and out of the slip - it's time to learn a little about sail trim. So we are thinking we might tool around on a Hobie and see if that will help, but I digress - that sounds like work and I am into some major relaxing today!
After our couples massage we hung out by the pool and read books and admired the scenery then went back to the room so Bob could snorkel and I could finish my current book by a female cruiser (I guess I just can't get enough; I like living vicariously through them, but have no desire to sail 17,000 miles to Hong Kong).

thing is supposed to be a secret, shhhhh!). You see in both Fiji and Tonga the men wear these wrap-around sarong/skirt things so he is right in style at least here in the room. I haven't been able to coax him out to the pool in it yet :-) What I can't help but wonder is, what is the dress code under the sarongs and is that why the guys don't seem to mind wearing them?????

Izzie- Thanks for the updates on your grand adventure You're grand kiddies look forward to me reading them to them each night. They think you're funnier then Dr. Seuss. They also think its a hoot that Cappie is wearing a skirt and can't wait for to get home. Love Vic & Bebop
ReplyDeleteHi Vic - So glad to know you are out there and enjoying the trip with us. Just wish you could be here - the kids would love the fish, especially the school that followed Cappy around tonight. Tell them we will see them soon with gifts all the way from Fiji! Love Izzie and Cappy
