We're Home...

Well, we're home from Rocky Point. I'm happy and sad to be home. We had a blast, like always and I can't wait to go back down. I'm already trying to plan a trip down there again before it gets cold! :o) What can I say? I'm a major beach bum. Well, our trip started out EARLY Sunday morning, about 4:00 am and we left about 5:45. Why is it that you can NEVER leave when you say you're going to leave on a vacation? Anyway, we were only about 45 minutes late. We drove down, well, Steven drove, I slept :o) And we made it to church a little bit late but we were still there. I couldn't understand a thing but it was awesome to see everyone there. We didn't know they had 2 branches down there. After church we headed over to our condo, waited about an hour to check in but finally did so. We were sooo nervous that things weren't going to work out because the people behind us in line were checking out and they had a horrible experience with their condo (a.c. not working, being blamed for things that were already broken, no hot water, credit card charges, etc.) They booked through the condo itself but we went directly through the owner so everything was perfect. Our condo looked just like the pictures! We were so relieved. Anyway, we just hung out on the beach the rest of the day, got some tubes and went down the lazy river and just relaxed.
Monday morning we woke up and...I wasn't feeling too good. Let's just say I was downing the Pepto-Bismol and eating lots of toast and bananas. It was awful. I stayed in bed until about 11:00 and we got up and went to town to get some more medicine but I could barely stand the ride because the roads were so bumpy and everytime we went over a bump I thought I was going to throw up. Anyway, Steven dropped me off at the condo, then he went out for some tacos and Thrifty's ice cream. I slept again and when I woke up at about 1:00pm, felt great so we decided it was time to hit the beach/pool. We stayed out until about 4:30 (we even got to play bingo by the pool!) and I started to feel a bit weak so we went inside to lay down and of course, I started feeling not so good again. My stomach felt fine I was just soo cold but Steven said my body was on fire. I think I just got dehydrated from not wanting to drink liquids. Anyway, we went out to dinner that night and I was SO excited to see that they had vegetables. I was sick of Mexican food or bananas so I got some salad but on the way home we stopped and got Thrifty's. I didn't care if it hurt, I was going to eat some ice cream. We went back to the condo and I crashed. It was wonderful.
Tuesday morning we woke up bright and early and I was feeling great so we put on our swimsuits and went down to the beach. We went for a long walk and then jumped in the water. It felt great. We were sitting there when Steven said there were fish around him. I stood up and looked and he had these three TINY fish swimming by his arm. They wouldn't leave his side. They would just stay right by him. I told him they were probably looking at you saying, "I think it's a butt."Anyway, they were so stinkin' cute. After we got out of the ocean we laid out for a while and then had our friends Sandra and Ariseli braid my hair. We met them in May and they braided Brooke's hair and we saw them again! They're sweet girls and even though I don't like to have my hair braided, we did it anyway! After that we packed up and checked out of our condo. We went shopping a little bit and bought two bowls for chips and salsa. We also made one last stop at the taco stand and Thrifty's :o)
It was a fun trip, I just wish I wasn't sick! I'm putting the pictures on a different post since there are a lot.
