Just a Perfect Day

Oh boy it was hot today! There was no cooling tropical breeze like I’ve come to rely on, so it made the temperature of 27/28 degrees seem hotter than normal. After Chris came home from work we drove out to Blackrock beach for a swim.

For the first time since I’ve been here I can vouch for that expression about Raro lagoon water being like a warm bath. It was glorious! The tide was in and the water calm, so I just lay on my back, floating, and listening to the glinkgloink of the lapping water, the local kids playing, and when I looked up into the sky and all I could see was blue blue blue.

In the evening at home I sat out on the deck, enjoying the last golden rays of sunlight stream through the palms, with a book in one hand and a vodka cruiser in the other. Bliss.
