Kayaking at Sandy Point

Although I dont have any pics (the waves were really rough at the Point today), I just thought I'd mention that we saw a huge (could've been leatherback?) turtle swimming out in the ocean today whilst we were out kayaking. She stuck her head up out of the water, looked around and then dove back in... it was the most beautiful thing I have seen in a long time and absolutely made my weekend as i've never ever seen a wild turtle before!

Weekend with Michelle






We had our friend, Michelle from Puerto Rico over this weekend and it was fun to drive around and do a few touristy things - including some things we havent seen ourself!

The pigs in the photos are up at the Domino Club, (Or "Normas" - the cook is more famous than the bar itself)... pay your $2 for a beer and throw it to the pigs - they'll crush it with their teeth and gulp the whole lot! It was hilarious. The reknowed "Mamajuana" had to be tried as well - a homemade blend of honey, rum and fermented herbs... wow that packed a punch!

The afternoon we spent at Sandy Point - another beach we hadnt been to before. Its a turtle nesting ground, only open on weekends and only at certain times of the year. The drive in there is rough and long, but so worth it. I know I say this every time, but it was the most beautiful beach I've seen in my life .. i'll let you decide from the photos!!
