Spent a day catching up. Seems like we always have someone sick on vacation, and this time it was Mike and Alexis. A day at the doctors office (where english was a second language, and they seemed shocked when Mike showed them his insurance card instead of paying cash), waiting for prescriptions (which the pharmacy was actually out of?!) and then getting caught up on some sleep. We enjoyed the hotel pool, and my sister and brother spent the day at one of the "big kid" parks.
On our last full day we took the kids to Coco beach. We'd been told by locals that it was still pretty cold, and that they probably wouldn't do more than get their feet wet. We threw the kids suits in the car, but didn't really know what to expect.
Clearly "cold" has such different meanings. The weather was definitely in our favor and it was a good day to be at the be at the beach. Three hours flew by. We probably would have stayed longer had we actually planned for it!
It was the first time the kids had seen the ocean. Hilarious to see them figure out the waves, body surfing, and the whole concept of the tide. One of those things where you can explain it to them all you want, but when they see it for themselves, the light goes on. It was awesome.
Max had no problem making another friend for the afternoon.
My sister took some of the cutest pictures!
Such fun memories. And so grateful we were able to have the experience!
