So what has been going on all week! Nothing and its been amazing ! I've just been relaxing and hanging out by the ocean and the pool and when I'm not by the water I've been snoozing in the room or playing cards ! So last time I wrote was at the beginning of the week, since the fam has been on a tequila tasting course which was very informative! We also went on an amazing Mexican cooking course with the head chef of the club. He took us to the local market and taught us about all the herbs fruit and meats that he uses in Mexican cooking. When we got back to the club we learnt how to cook fish tacos, salsa, guac, tortilla soup, chile rellino? (cheese stuffed peppers) and we made our own tortillas ! Walking around the market was my favorite part of the holiday. After we cooked lunch the fam took naps and went swimming and then got ready to go eat dinner at an amazing restaurant called Amuletto. Amuletto is located at one of the highest point overlooking the bay and has a beautiful view of the sunset. The food was amazing as well. Thursday I didnt do much b/c I wasnt feeling to good so I slept a lot in the room and as for today, the day we are supposed to be leaving ! Well flying to Houston today isnt going to work out bc of the hurricane so we are stuck in paradise for another day til we can fly out a different route. I was hoping to go into work tomorrow but we are not going to get home until sunday afternoon! Instead of flying from here to Houston to HSV we are flying here to Mexico City spending the night on saturday then flying to atlanta and then on to HSV on sunday afternoon. A bit of a pain in the ass but oh well, you've gotta do what you've gotta do. So in the mean time we found a great little coffee shop in town and got a spot of breakfast and then walked around town and found the old fishing pier and did a bit of shopping! We walked past the naval/coast guard office which was being protected by three army men in full drab carrying old style M16s, a little excessive for this tiny little ancient fishing town!! We also met a guy from Norway we moved here 12 years ago and opened up a rug shop selling rugs made in the local mountains, he just hangs out all day every day, sells rugs here and there and just has a really relaxing chilled out life! Thats the way to do it!
