as usual I was up and on the balcony by 6… bit of early morning fog then…

but by 6:45 it was nearly gone… called the other daughter as today is her birthday…

had breakfast around 8 and then we headed to the beach in front of the hotel… spent the day there… we beachcombed, jumped in the waves, rode on boogy boards, relaxed, got henna tattoos, drank piña coladas, shopped for signs, jewellery and sea shells…

and parasailed…

my daughter took the shots from up in the air…

I got to go on my own… such fun…

we spent a final hour in the pool and headed to our rooms to rest and get ready for dinner at the Mexican restaurant…

enjoyed our supper and are all headed to bed…

all that fun wears a person out, lol…

here’s today shell collection… that we found…

and the purchased ones which came from the island just across from the hotel…

big girl pants, dragonfly, George, henna, tattoo

had a wonderful experience at lunchtime today…

a young woman I recently met gave me a henna tattoo…

we had talked about it and I decided on a dragonfly… she did some research and we picked today at noon to get the job done…

  
she is clearly an artist… filled with talent… so steady with her hands…

she reminded me of George… he was always meticulous when working on a project and was very precise and his hands were always steady…

he would have been impressed with her skill…

had to let it dry for the afternoon and evening… then I picked off the ink and rubbed oil on the tattoo…

here’s a picture, but I must say it is hard to take pictures of your own arm… 

  
it will be interesting to see how long it lasts…

got dropped off and had a nice walk home… the green of the grass and trees, and blue of the sky, looked very nice…

  
ahhhhh, home…
