If you look close you can see the tower on top of the hill.
Then we hiked to this gorgeous waterfall. This creepy guy kept following Alesha and Missy around and I couldn't get a picture of them without him in it. So if anyone could help me learn how to photo shop him out that would be great!
Here is Caleb underneath the waterfall.
Iguanas lived at our hotel grounds near a pond. It was kinda scary how Addy wasn't afraid of them. She tried to feed them anything she could find.
Occasionally they wondered out to the pool side.
Here is Alesha climbing a palm tree. You can't tell from this picture but she was up there really high. This is my brother, Caleb (I know it gets confusing sometimes). He was so sweet the entire trip and Addy adores him. He cracked open some coconuts so we could drink them and pretend we were on the show LOST.
Missy and Alesha in their snorkel gear at Seven Seas beach. We hung out here while the guys went on a scuba dive. We also did the body board, but I didn't get any pictures of it.
My favorite part of the trip was the bioluminescence lagoon. I don't have any pictures because our guide told us not to bring cameras. We kayaked under the stars through this canal that had the trees draped over it like a love tunnel. In the dark the moving water would glow. So you could see shrimp that would jump in the water because they were glowing a neon blue color. When you put your hand in the water it would glow even after you took it out. I guess there are about 5 places in the world with the right conditions for glowing plankton to live. So it was pretty neat, not to mention romantic. :)
Well there you have it our trip in a nutshell. I could go on and on about it, but I think this post is plenty long enough.

Looks like you guys had a trip of a lifetime. Glad it was fun! I hope we make it to places like that someday
What a gorgeous place!! It looks like you guys had so much fun. And how funny that Addy wasn't afraid of the iguanas but was afraid of the ocean.
To get rid of that guy - use your clone tool. Easy as pie. :)
Hey, I love the pictures. And I love that Addy has a mini swimwear collection! I bet your family had so much fun playing with her! Glad you guys had a good time.

Hi Di I found you blog via Shae. It looks like you guys are doing well and enjoying TX. How fun! We thought about moving to San Antonio for a residency but it wasn't in the stars. Your little Addy is just adorable and I love the name of your blog... Cute play-on-words.
