life's a beach

it's 8 am saturday morning and coen just woke up. the sun is shining (which makes it kinda bright for morning cartoons).

despite what you may think, we do not wake up each day on the beach with a frozen drink in hand. i can't tell you how good that sounds though. however, life is pretty much as usual. our environment is a little (okay, a lot) different, but our routine is pretty much the same. we get a lot of rain, just like back home. but it's 80 degrees, and i can't remember the last time i didn't wear sandals. in fact, come to think of it i don't think coen has worn pants since we have been on the island....that would explain the bruised and scraped knees i guess.

a typical week for coen and i = play group/music class/fruit market/laundry. for wes = lava chasing. when the weekend arrives we do our best to get out and explore. this might mean exploring our new property, heading into town, or if we are really lucky hitting the beach (or should i say lava rocks).

we are still in the search for the "perfect" local beach. don't worry, we will have that figured out before your visit.

happy weekend!
