On the day of New Years eve, we went out to the reef in our dinghys along with friends Ann & John. We packed our snorkel gear. The waves were crashing, but we jumped in anyhow. The snorkeling was good, not the best we’ve seen, but worth the effort. Charlie stayed in charge of the dinghy’s and barked constantly. To try to keep the peace, I swam back to the dinghy. Now the challenge .. to get back in the dinghy without a dinghy ladder. P did it first try. As for me, I took many tries to hop on over the inflated side without success. Eventually making it back on by hoisting a leg over the back of the dinghy and having P give a big pull. Tears were rolling down my cheeks I was laughing so hard.<\/p>\n

After snorkeling we went back to Blue Sky and had a cool glass of Caribe (new favorite beer, similar to Corona). All that swimming and climbing back into the dinghy wore us out. <\/p>\n

We enjoyed a quiet dinner and sat up listening to the live music on shore. We had thought to go ashore and join in the fun, but didn’t. Sometimes you get lazy, and this was one of those nights. P retired at 10:30 pm. I made it to 11. I did hear the ringing in of the new year at midnight as boat horns were blaring for a good 10 minutes followed by fireworks. I was too tired to get up. Rain followed the fireworks. I closed our hatch and fell asleep.<\/p>\n

We started out the new year right with delicious freshly made pastry in our favorite morning spot<\/p>\n
