Drying up
Today it only took us 30 minutes to walk the beach at a brisker pace. The sand is still extremely saturated, but still compact enough to cycle on (we saw tire tracks). No swimming in the sea yet, as there is still the presence of stingers. The cyclone has really whipped up the currents. They had to remove the stinger nets because of the rough waves. But the water feels so inviting...
Today the sun finally shone through the clouds. It had been desperately trying the past couple of days. Its amazing the difference it made to the garden; all the greenery just came to life.
Marlee discovered a coconut. At first she was petrified, not sure what the heck it was. But once she saw that it wouldn't harm her, she hoed right into it with much gusto. The ultimate doggie toy! We need to get a couple for home!
The weather has really warmed up with the sun shining... I might even jump in the pool. Tomorrow Marlee will be allowed to go for a swim too (now that we have removed the last of her stitches).
And great news: the cable guy is coming to hook up the cable tomorrow and to fix the aerial (we have had static tv). So that means the Footy Channel for Craig, and all the Lifestyle, Discovery and Animal Planet I can watch! We have watched 5 of our dvds thus far, but if the sun keeps shining, we'll have to bring the remainder home with us.
