Island Life, Here we Come

Our Homeaway Vacation Dream is coming true! We've booked the place and it is beautiful!
We took our passport photos, that I hope to scan into the blog.
We've purchased our tickets for departure in a few short weeks.
I'm taking Kevin's picture to get an online replacement of his dive card.
I'm calling American Airlines to let them know Olive will be on my lap.
I've purchased a Kelty framepack for Oliver to ride in at the airport and on hikes.

I'm researching our itinerary for the island, which will include:
several dive experiences
dolphin encounters for Ana and Elliot
horseback riding
snorkeling
tropical drinks
typical breakfast
oceanfront lounging
star gazing
deep breathing
belly laughing

And on the mainland:
I hope to meet my new 'niece' Crisella
I want to spend time with Tia Marta and Tio Yeto, Tia Thelma, Pamen, Hector Emilio & Maria Marta, Tio Eduardo, Tia Maria Teresa, Tio Rolando...I want to see how much Juan Alfredo, Hansie, Daniel, Rafael, Blanca, Ana Cecilia and Laura have grown.
I want to go to Copan Ruinas. The last time I was there, I was courting Kevin(-;
I want to eat sea bass on Lake Yojoa.
I want to take a day trip to San Antonio del Oriente.
I want to share my beautiful children with our beautiful family. I want them to fall in love with the land, the people, the traditions. I want to start a tradition of these visits...these were such a big part of my growth and development. I can't wait.
