Day 2 in Playa Hermosa

Mom and I rallied around 8 to have breakfast at the hotel. Once everyone else woke up and ate, everyone but Katy’s parents walked down the beach to the volcanic tide pools. Unsurprisingly, the Hughes crew spent a long time bent over the pools, looking for creatures and sea glass. Mom and I had lunch at a nearby restaurant called Almar and I had sangria to celebrate national sangria day (as if I need an excuse to drink sangria). The shrimp pasta and tuna tartare were both excellent. After lunch, we went next door to the little tienda to scout out jam and tequila prospects. I got some little treats and we headed back to the beach to wait for the housekeepers to clean our room before I headed in for a shower and a big nap. My energy is always a challenge and I didn’t nap at all on our second travel day and didn’t sleep much in the hotel in Fort Lauderdale. It’s always very frustrating when my disability, you know, disables me.

For dinner, we ate at the hotel because it was barbecue night. My lobster probably wasn’t worth the price but mom’s surf and turf was a delight.

We wrapped up the night with a little Ransom Notes with Katy on the upstairs balcony. It turns out that Keaton is extremely good at the game. Pictured is my hopes for the trip with my remaining words.Læs mere
