We got up and had breakfast. Then is was all about unpacking and getting situated. Once we were set it was off to the beach. On the island there are 2 beaches. One that is beautiful but unfortunately it is open to the public. So many vacationers come and kick it on that beach. The other beach is also open to the public but much smaller and not quite as nice and with all of us on it, no one really goes to it. It appears to be a private beach even though it's not. We kicked it on the beach for a while when Carlos came around in his seedoo. Nate was very excited about the seedoo. He called it the motorcycle. I was a bit nervous to take him for a ride since I was not familiar how to drive it. So Sabine went ahead and took him. I saw them take off and then stop then take off really fast. Kind of freaked me out. Apparently Nate was wearing a hat and it was flying off of him. Sabine stopped and while she was removing it and putting it away, Nate decided to take the wheel and just hit it and almost went full throttle. Scared the crap out of Sabine and she does not get that scared. When they came back Nate was all excited about it. It was my turn and a quick lesson and I was all over it taking a nice little ride alone. We spent the rest of the day on the beach but Nate really wanted to go on the seedoo again so this time I took him. He was so happy. I just loved seeing him like that. Later that day we went back to the house. Nate was doing much better. His infection appeared to clear up and his allergies were much better but Nate had a bit of the runs and did I. We took a shower and fed him and to my surprise he ate. I put him in bed and he was out before I could finish reading him his story. I guess he had a busy day. I went to join everyone for dinner but my stomach was just not right. So much so that I barely ate and even turned down the wine. Ugh, that pained me! Since I was not feeling all that great, I went to bed shortly after.
