The arrival. Oh my heart! They looked so good. There's 40 lbs. less of Jacob than when we left. Nice, Jacob. You look great! And Missy's lost her baby Brigham weight. You look superb as well!
We took them to meet our angel friends, the Wegeners, from Sandy.
Arrival at Lifestyles Vacation (whoops...Excursion) Resort. Couldn't wait to get our first piña colada (sin gasoline!)
Riding the shuttle...life is hard...
Ooh yes, those chocolate and carmel drizzled crepes were this good! Nice one, Missy!

| Comfortable Grandpa? |
Having fun...wish you were here!
We're really missionaries, we promise!
Our ocean therapy...just what the doctor ordered!
Check out that stud-muffin Jacob!

Enjoying a little walk at Ocean World. More of that to come in my next blog!
It really is paradise!
Don't work too hard having fun in the sun!
Jacob did work hard digging up these conchas in the sand in 3 feet of water.
These cute little guys (yes Bec, they are cute!) really do walk sideways. I love their eyes!
To church in Puerto Plata. A good Sabbath.
We did have to say goodbye to our Island Paradise...
Stark contrast...not far from the luxury resort, the reality of the poverty here hits you hard.
But the people are happy and content with their simple life. What a beautiful setting.
On our way home...nearly collided head-on with a car passing in our lane...no where to go but into a ditch or over a big rock instead. Destroyed the undercarriage of our car.
While waiting for the tow truck, Miss and I took pictures of a lovely little neighborhood nearby.
Cute and yellow....very sunshiny!
All good things must come to an end...:(
