the above saying was a bumper sticker we saw all around town. when we first arrived, i did not believe it. but by our second day in barra, i was in love. this town is magical. the best kept secret (expect now i'm announcing it here). we will for sure go back! we had a wonderful trip, besides a last minute cancellation by our dear friends the oranen's. we missed them and look forward to a trip next year. so we ended up spending our vacation with t's mom melinda and her beau john. we shared melinda's condo, set right on the beach and had a wonderful time. we were happy to have grandma around to do a little babysitting and she was more than happy to have riley for a week. we don't get to see her much, so it was a treat. here is what we did:
*walk on the beach*swim in the ocean*read*play cribbage*two road trips up north to do more beach sitting*eat amazing authentic mexican food*walk around town*made meals in condo*go out to eat*habla espanol*pool*surfing for tyler*water taxi to dinner*
that about sums it up. as you can see, we really didn't do anything. it was perfect. just what we needed. the sleepy town, only populated by about 5,000 people with a very local feel was the perfect recipe for a relaxing vacation.
i couldn't figure out how to imbed a slide show in this post, and didn't spend much time on it...so here is the link to some of the better pictures from our trip.
