Once Brant's aunt arrived, we switched sides of the island - moved to the busy, more touristy side. In retrospect, maybe not the smartest idea, but it was worth a try. :)
A couple more water pics... :)I love both of these. The beach was really funny, because it actually started pouring about a half hour after AP took this pic (which was about 10 minutes after we got there) It was a huge storm and we packed up and ran screaming down the road until we could find a taxi willing to cart our drenched sandy selves back to our hotel for pizza and a movie. :)
We went to the monkey forest one day... had never been there. It was really fun. The monkeys got WAY close. I had read in my nifty Lonely Planet (and had heard from friends who had been there) to not fall for buying the bananas from the vendors right outside the entrance. At first the boys were bummed they couldn't feed the monkeys, but after seeing a few tourists (including kids!) violently attacked by over-eager monkeys searching for bananas, they weren't real bent on wanting to feed them. :)
(Notice we are all wearing longer shirts and pants because it was so "cool" in the forest... but Brant's aunt is wearing shorts and a tank top! :))
One of the highlights of the trip.....
We caught our plane home at 6 in the morning two days before Christmas. Needless to say, were a TAD on the tired side. The cooler next to Ezra was holding 15 packs of lunch meat (yeah!) and multiple hundreds of dollars worth of vaccinations... which I have yet to be brave enough to actually give the little boys.
Love seeing the pics and hearing about your vacation.
