Stu sitting in the communal area in our hostel

Taking a look round the town the first night we got there

The fantastic beach's in the town

Dad demonstrating how to use the optics (just for the picture you understand!)

Mr elephant, one of the cool little monsters that the guy who cleaned our room made for us most days

Taking in the luxury of our new abode

Stu on the hotel beach

The hotel beach

All of doing one of our famous runs down to the beach only to decide we are too hot so we all have to up and dash off somewhere cooler

A big thunder storm heading our way, this was the only day we had any rain, but it absolutely tipped down for most of the day

Here's mum trying to protect herself from the rain by putting her sun lounger cushion on her head! We don't call her Crazy G for nothing!

Dad strutting his fine physique round the pool!

Just a spot of lunch then back to the sun loungers for another exhausting afternoon by the pool, its a tough job but somebody has to do it!

Mum and day by the pool

Back to the rooms for a shower and an aperitif before dinner

One of the big iguanas that wander around the grounds

One of the strange little guinea pig, rat type monsters that also wander round the grounds. We think there real name is a Tepezcuintle

These are what we named the Snuffler Wufflers that showed up behind mum and dads room every night before dinner. We would take some food from breakfast and feed them, there was a whole family, they were very friendly.

One just plucking up the courage to come and take the food out of dads hand

Time to eat again! Salute!

When in Rome ...

We found it funny anyway!

More drinks before dinner

and just a couple more!

and then a couple after dinner too!

A fantastic ice sculpture of 2 swans along with the cast of Shreik carved out of watermelons. Here's mum feeding Donkey!

Just one more for the road "show me the way to go ome ....."

Blimey and a few more! We didn't really drink that much honestly, it just looks that way!

We booked a table one night in the specialty steak restaurant and ate the biggest steak you have ever seen

Ready for dinner and a night in the bar and watch a show

We pulled!

Whilst Stuart was on stage collecting his prizes for winning the shooting and the darts

Our last night at the hotel

Mind you we managed to dash down the the beach the next morning so the boys could get one more quick sail in before we left. I'm not entirely sure what the face pulling chicken dance is all about!

Off they go

and back they come!
