Urgent Message

This was an urgent message sent from Susan and Sandra, who were at the pool (100 feet from the bar) to Chris, who was in the house (100 feet on the other side of the bar).

Well... Chris clearly got at the blog sometime today when I wasn't looking and added a little post of his own, and now my decadent and lazy vacation behavior is out there for all the world to see. In Susan's defense, she offered to go inside and get money but I really didn't see how that was an option because it would be impossible for her to get up and go inside while still doing absolutely nothing but lying happily in the sun. In any case, the call for cash worked, and we've never been happier to see Chris.

Susan left this morning so early that I returned to bed after her shuttle arrived, right on time at 6 a.m. I trust the rest of her travel day was without delay or difficulty. She should be arriving home anytime now, actually. It was a wonderful visit and we both swore we would do it again in the future and that our middle sister must come, as well.

Chris and I continued living a life of ease and luxury today. We went into town for a breakfast of omelets and crepes and wandered around town throughout the morning, picking up some additional trinkets and making our (sniff!) travel arrangements out of Panajachel. We have decided that despite this place being idyllic, we will leave tomorrow and spend our remaining days in Antigua, where we only spent an hour or so at the start of our travels.

We spent the rest of the day at the pool reading and writing and there is little to report on that except that we did see a rainbow circled around the sun, something I have never seen before. We didn't have the camera on hand but imagine what a spectacular sight it was. It makes sense that we would see something like that here... it just makes sense.
