The first day here was a lot of fun. It began with dip in the lagoon inside the barrier reef. The water is crystal blue with shades of turquois in the shallow areas. It was around 8am after we popped out of the water to relax on the chaise lounge chairs. It feels like Hawaii, only with a very French flair. The conversations are French, the women are topless, the food is delicious.

Later we met a French man, Sebastian, that moved here from France two years ago. He took us by jet ski to a place the dolphins congregate. We drove outside the barrier reef into the ocean. The back of the waves breaking so far off the shore was a sight. We turned off the engines and soon the dolphins swam up and gathered around. They were spinners. What a sight!

Tonight after dinner, Jerry showed me the Southern Cross. How special is that?? I never thought I'd ever get that experience. We had to listen to Crosby Stills and Nash on our iphone and just stare up in the sky. It looks like a kite more than a cross, to me, but it is a sight I won't soon forget.

I woke up in the middle of night to see a bright, full moon over the ocean. It must be a good omen for what's to come
