Lazy Sunday

Having been on the go all week, we decided to just relax and play it by ear. Good thing because poor Kara had a sun reaction with one of her meds and woke up quite swollen. Since we are all moms, we of course gave her the third degree, insisted that she take a Benadryl and lay down for a bit.

In the meantime, Perri and I went into our "crouching tiger" positions on the beach and looked for shells. There are so many perfect little shells, it's amazing! It was a hot sunny day and of course we sat out there until we just couldn't take it anymore. Yeah, sunburned doesn't even quite begin to describe it!!

Once in the house, we watched some daytime tv and became obsessed with our bug bites. We put everything on those suckers; witch hazel, lime juice, alcohol even mouthwash and NOTHING made them stop itching. Except maybe the plastic fork that Perri used to scratch the hell out of them.

Kara was still sleeping so went ventured out to find the little wading pool like cut-out along the shoreline. It felt so good to get into that water. There were some fish swimming around, but they didn't mind us. The water was warm and very soothing on the ole bites.

Kara rejoined us - looking very refreshed - for some more shelling and then we did our "holy quick shower" routine to head out for dinner at the Sunset Inn.

Great prices, service was a little slow, but you are in the Bahamas. I don't remember what I had, but I know next time I'm getting the grouper (that's what Perri had - it was delicious!!) We did try some cracked conch and ugh!! That is a taste that one does not soon forget...not a good taste either (in my opinion). Very wild and chewy...not a big fan!!

There is some very nice art work hanging inside that was done by local artist Kevin Cooper. It was nice to see his work since we had met him at Mate & Jenny's after the famous "dog" incident.

Hard to believe we have been in Eleuthera for six days...time sure does go by fast when you are on vacation. Another perfect ending to a perfect day in paradise!
