Last day here
Mar. 14th, 2025 11:52 pmWe fly out tomorrow. So today the sunblock decided to fail and I have patchy burns. Honestly could have been a lot worse so I'm not complaining.
Just another day in the pool and back to the ocean. Now this is a beach that is combed so there are no interesting rocks or shells. However today I wanted to take pictures on this promontory of rock in the ocean and as I wandered out there I found four little shells. I think they're limpets. I'll try to get them home.
Dinner tonight was weird in that it was the 'Mexican' restaurant but instead of traditional mexican food (which I was looking forward to) it was more generic 4 star sort of food except for an aquachiles starter which was octopus (that I didn't want) and some guacamole. I did get beef short ribs which was good. Dessert was a strawberry sorbet/hibiscus gelee tamale which pickled blueberries (it was also good except for the blueberries)
No new drinks (and I think we're all ready to go home)
I went to the poolside show alone, a mariachi band, all female except for the guitarist. It was fun.
And I did something today I haven't done since I fell: I got in a tub for a bath, or in this case, a jet spa tub and it was lovely. Also I was able to get out easily (It had a handicapped rail so I figured I'd be okay) Going to have to try a bath or two at home as I like reading in the tub (also speaking of home what the heck is up with it being 80 in March back there?!?)
well it's time for the obsessive checking of the hotel to be sure I leave nothing behind.
