Hey hey, so it's been almost a month weeks since Christine and I returned from Cuba, maybe I should get back into the swing of things and actually, you know, talk about it. :P
I won't go through every single day, but as I had written up a journal of my days, I'll pass along the cool bits. :D
On the first night, while we were trying to get to sleep, we both heard this clack-clack-clacking sound over by the bar fridge. Seeing that I figured it might have been the fridge, I went over to it and unplugged it. The clacking started up a few minutes after that. So, I went back over to it, and discovered that we had a little wildlife in our room in the form of a small crab, hiding in the warmth of the cooling unit. After opening the back door and shooing the little guy away with my footwear, he scuttled off, out the door, and I never saw him again. XD
In terms of other wildlife, we saw numerous spottings of lizards everywhere, a few gulls and grackles (which liked to drink the water from the swimming pool), and the occasional tiny hermit crab.
On Saturday, about halfway through our vacation, we went on a day-long catamaran ride, where we were allowed to snorkel in two coral reef areas, one sandy-beach in the middle of nowhere, and an on-the-boat lobster lunch. I have to admit, I really enjoyed myself on this day, despite undoubtedly taking in far too much sun. However, I'll admit that I started to get antsy when there wasn't much else to do, and talking was at a minimum because most of the other guests were French-Canadian and had their own cliques... but I digress.
Anyhow, there was one more big thing that I had to address while I was in Cuba. On the final night, I got engaged. :)

Congratulations on your engagement!!! So happy for you! :D
Also, I love hermit crabs and crabbies in general, so all your photos of the hermies and your little fridge friend were much appreciated. So cute!

I had actually wanted to speak about more things, but to be honest I enjoyed so many things the post would've been overshadowing the engagement ^^ I got a kick out of the crabs, too - our fridge visitor is one of the ones we keep retelling as our "welcome to Cuba" story XD
