The office for the place I went snorkeling was absolutely crawling with iguanas.  One of them apparently spends pretty much all his time tucked in by some plants; the staff have named him Pepe, and he’s so chill, you can pet him.  This is not him, it’s just a better picture of an iguana

We had the option each day of having breakfast on the beach or in our villa.  We chose the beach.

We were lounging on the outdoor bed (yes, there was an outdoor bed, perfect for napping), and Doug was trying to orient me:  the office is there, the parking area is there, etc.  Then I cut him off and said  “And the crab is there.”

When I imagine an island paradise, it looks pretty much like this.

Saw a couple golden retrievers in the backseat of this car. Whatever you may think of Tesla, you have to admit having this setting in the car is a pretty great idea.

The library held a Lunar New Year celebration. Our new mayor was there to say a few words My ELL student and I went, and she taught me some stuff, and fed me some treats.

My friend Jen had a brunch this morning, and this fruit  plate was on the table.  The swans are white chocolate covered pineapple.  I have no idea if Jen put this together herself, or purchased it all as is.  Because the thing is, she is one of those incredibly talented, creative people who could quite possibly have made all this herself.

Another morning poking around getting ideas for our upcoming bathroom renovation.  We both liked several of the items offered by this company, and I personally enjoy the idea of happy floors.

The little theater up the street had a special event tonight: 2 silent movies accompanied by a live pianist. I confess, I’ve never actually seen anything by Charlie Chaplin or Buster Keaton, so this seemed like a fun way to check it out.  Super fun….the guy on the keyboards was so great, I think everyone forgot that the music was being played live.

Doug and I went poking around a couple kitchen/bath showrooms, shopping for ideas for the bathrooms we are finally getting redone.  Doug spotted this display, looking like a smiley face, and I really hope it was intentional.
