Tuesday, July 7th - Beach Day!

Today was our one day of rest, at Alona Beach Resort, one of my favorite places on Earth!

I splurged and got a one-hour massage, laying on the beach, and a foot scrub all for $8. It was heavenly! I also went snorkeling with Erica where we saw a bunch of fish, including big clown fish. You can swim out about 200 yards and you come to the cliff. The beach gradually gets deeper and deeper as you swim out, but at that 200 yard mark, it just drops off. You can't see the bottom, it's pitch black. That's where the best fish are - AMAZING! It was so nice to get a day to just relax, after 2 1/2 weeks of just pouring out of ourselves.

We ended the day buy going to BQ (Bohol Quality - a small mall downtown) to shop and go to Pizza Hut. These guys know us here, and it's always funny as we take up more than half the restaurant. We celebrated Dani's birthday today - Happy Birthday Dani! - with a stop at Bo's coffee and cake from the Garden Cafe. What a fun day!
