Feliz Navidad!

Merry Christmas everyone from a cloudy Hacienda del Mar. It poured last night and before breakfast, but its clearing off now. Everyone had fun opening presents. We had a visit from Lucas the Christmas Toucan to boot.

It has been gorgeous the past two days. We had a bonfire on the beach last night after a feast of fish paella (rice, veggies, fish, spices). Alden, Gigi and I went on a tour of the island with Jonnie.

We bumped all over the place and saw two gorgeous beaches, a high point that used to have cables stretching to the mainland and another island to transport heavy stuff (compliments of the U S Army) there was a training facility on the island from about 1948 through Vietnam Nam with about 4,000 people living on the island.
