Extra Details

Good Morning All,

It is 9:00p.m. here and I will be hitting the sack very shortly. Tanner has updated the blog but forgot to mention a few details. On Corrigedor Island I asked our tour guide what kind of animals inhabited the island and his response was monkeys, deer, pythons, and cobras! Thankfully, the only creature we saw was a monkey crossing the road, much to Ricky's delight!
By the way Austin, during our tour there was an area with steps and ramps and Ricky mentioned that you would like to skate there. Some young men from California laughed and agreed that skating there would be really cool.

As Tanner mentioned, Ricky did eat dried fish this morning and even tried to get me to eat some. I have tried many things that he has offered, but refused the fish. Both the look and the smell made it extremely unappealing. Ricky eats rice at every meal as well as mango in some fashion, (fresh, juice, smoothie etc).

Mimi and Pawpaw Walter, Ricky asked about Pelize instead of Felize and we couldn't quite get him to distinguish the "f" sound from the "p" sound. We thought it was cute.

Ricky and I have played Battle and of course he has won both times! He talked about all of us playing while we were in Dallas. I'm sure I'll have a chance to redeem myself on the flight home.

Madison, there was a mural on the wall at Pizza Hut and there was a young girl painted on it. Ricky pointed to the girl and said, " Madison". Like you, Ricky also took all of my whip cream off my frappacino and he likes butter. I can't wait until we all get to reunite at the airport on Saturday. Until then, you and Austin continue to be good and do your best. Dad and I miss you both so much. We will call again before bedtime on Thursday night your time (Friday morning our time).

Love you,
Mom

P.S. Someone just knocked on our door to ask if I needed "Turn down Service". When I looked confused, he explained that he would turn down my bed covers! Obviously, we are not roughing it!
