I don't completely remember the sequence
of all our pictures with our vacation, but will try my best. The
following picture was probably taken in the afternoon, but later in
the week. When we got there Saturday, the beach was pretty empty
through about Tuesday. For dinner the first night, we ate at our
hotel. It was damn
tasty.

Like the picture above with
the sun reflecting off the
water.

This was inside our
room/suite looking out the the beach. In the center of the window
you can see the blue that is the ocean. Our suite was basically
a one bedroom apartment with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, living
room area and
porch.
|
|
Since we had a full kitchen and there was
a store at our hotel, we bought supplies to make our own lunches and
breakfasts. Of course they sold beer (and Rum) at the store,
though only Presidente the beginning part of the week. The Red
Stripe showed up later in the week, though the bar between the
beach and pool had plenty of Red
Stripe.

There were four strays that guarded our beach.
This is one of two twin puppies relaxing in the shade during the
mid-day sun. They were very friendly except when other dogs or
the woman selling hadbags and what-not came along. In
addition to the dogs, there were chickens, lizards and these
curious little yellow birds all about the area. In other
parts of the island, it wasn't uncommon to find goats munching
along.

We really didn't
take many pictures the first half of the week. We were too busy
doing nothing. I guess Wednesday or so, Jen started snapping all
kinds of
shots.
|
|
She was playing with
different perspectives and features of the camera. This one was from
the bar looking out over the
beach.
|
|
A self portrait of
us sitting at the bar. About mid-week and entire Italian family
checked into the hotel. They were really fun to watch. It was
like our own live reality show. Many hours were spent at the bar
drinking, looking out at the ocean and watching the
Itailans.

Jen using a color
filter to accentuate the blues in the
picture.

|
This monster of a
speedboat showed up one afternoon. A movie would have been better to
capture the full effect of this beast, but the picture is still
really
cool.
