As promised...vacation update

Monday, back to work...uuggghhh! And, I believe I have a little intestional buggie that followed me home from the Dominican - I've been spending long periods of time in the bathroom facilities. So much so that I remained at home, in the comfort of my own bathroom ;P

I took son to the dentist for a check up and returned home with a needed filling AND a referral to the Orthodontist -all I can hear are the cash register sounds in my head. We do have excellent medical coverage through work, but time will tell. For now we wait to see.

So, if there was a day where I could really use the workout it was today - but the dentist took longer than I'd hoped for so I missed the workout. AND, Craig was filling in for Laurissa so it promised to be a good one. I'm still hurting from Saturday's one hour Kettlebell class - SERIOUSLY!!

I chanced a 1/2 hour at the park (chanced the need to visit the bathroom!) and maked a short workout - better than none but not great. As Amy would say, I've lost my workout Mojo. Funny, so has hubby. It must have been the vacation. We both feel like we need to workout, and want to workout, but just can't summon the energy to give it 100%.

Ok, enough of that...here are the vacation highlights via photos:

there was some fun night-time entertainment (with lots of 'ron punches');

and here's how I spent my days - reading a book and watching the kids in the pool (again, heavy on the ron punches)!

I woke early most morings and would walk the beach and enojy the quiet.

and as promised...me in my bikini. This is early in the trip and I still look gastly pale :-p

Oh, I did workout twice. Once in the sad little gym, and the second time I did water aeobics. This picture is of our instructor - Shiney Pants! He was awesome (to look at!) and at the end of each days session he would drive in and make those shiney pants all wet! :)

And we did a one day off restort trip - it was amazing. We met kids in a a local school, ate in a local restaurant, went to two beaches, snorkled, fed the fish, shopped....what a full day.

So, I'll leave you with some miscellaneous landscape shots....makes me want to return asap!

Nite!
