Happy Christmas Eve to all you followers out there in snow laden lands.....here we are still swinging in our hammocks enjoying the beach and all that it has to offer....yep....life is good and we're living it to the fullest!! :-)
Sorry I didn't post anything last night...well....I'm really not all that sorry - oops..was that my outside voice?! :-0
There is a reason that there was no blog posting last night and I'll get to that in a minute but for now will just tell you that yesterday was dedicated to the letter "B". Why you ask?? Well.....it's just that so much of what we did yesterday seemed to include the letter B so it seemed only fitting that we should make such a dedication.
We started our day with a Breakfast of Burritos (well...we didn't eat breakfast till lunchtime so it's not as bad as you're thinking) and then we hit the Beach where we Boogie Boarded like crazy. Some would call us Boogie Board Babes and others might call us Boogie Bitches. Personally, I prefer the Babes reference!! I have to tell you that Boogie Boarding is loads of fun But there are some Bits of it that are quite dangerous too! There is the very real risk of losing your Bathing suit or at the very least losing your Bottoms. It is also very likely that your Boobs will fall out and if not your Boobs there will be other Bits of your Body that you'd typically keep covered that manage to expose themselves. There is also the very real danger that you'll get Burned on your Back as it's easy to lose track of the time when you're out there communing with nature in a pool larger than any pool should be! We managed to avoid most of the wildlife (ie: sting rays and sharks)but Lynda did have a little crab give her a "kiss" on the toe! Oh yes....and once you work up a thirst Braving the waters....there's always time for a Beer or two :-)
Following our Burns, Boogie Boarding, Beach, Beer, Bared Bits experience....we limped along the Bumpy little road to our rooms for a Breathtaking shower. The reason that it is Breathtaking is that there is no hot water...the water heater Broke and the new one hasn't arrived yet so we're Braving it with agua frio!! After a few Brrrrrr's and some 'Eau de Off' we were ready to head out again. Our friends Dave and Deb were scheduled to leave for home the next day so we had a great excuse to Buy them a good Bye Beer (or some facsimile thereof). We met at the Burro Burracho (the Drunken Donkey) and as you can see from the name of the place...we were Back into the letter "B" in a BIG way. We started with the Best intentions But.....as those things can go...one margarita led to another and another and another and well.....you may recall from an earlier Blog post where I mentioned that the Burro makes the deadliest margaritas ever....it is needless to say that we were in trouble and that trouble began with a capital "B".....Burracho!!! Before we knew what had happened our Bar Bill was Big and our Buddies were as Bad off as we were! As luck would have it, another guest from our hotel happened into the Burro in time to rescue us so after we had some help to the Bathroom, we were able to Bum a ride home where we fell into Bed and were fast asleep Before we knew where we were. The only other B is one that Lynda mentioned this morning and that is Barf Bag....I'll leave that B reference to your imagination!!
Today was pretty quiet.....we said goodbye over breakfast to Dave and Deb and reflected back on the laughs we'd had the night before. We reviewed some of the plans we'd made...like planning an entire vacation in Europe....in fact....we may have already committed to and paid for a canal boat....LOL....gotta be careful when there is internet, credit cards and Burracho Boogie Boarding Buddies together!! The rest of our day has been pretty quiet...I'd describe the way I'm feeling as having been hit by a truck! Those big waves can hurt when they hit!!! and holding down the front of your board when you're not used to using any of those muscles....can leave you feeling a little tender the next day. Oh ya....it may have a little to do with the copius amounts of tequila that were consumed too :-) Thank heavens for hammocks and water...lots of water!
So...I'll close with a wish for all of you to have a wonderful Christmas wherever you are.
Feliz Navidad,
L & L
