i remember when i first walked into this house i fell in love with all the windows that face the sea. i thought how perfect! but what i didn't realize is that those are west facing windows and what they really means is HOT AFTERNOON sun! yup it gets hot in our place. sept is our hottest month here in roatan. we have air conditioning in the bedroom but truthfully we rarely put it on.
we just sweat like the rest of the island folks. we just go find a cool breeze like the rest of the island folk. we just dip into the sea like the rest of the island folk. or we go to the ocean side and walk amongst the shade of afternoon trees.
that is what i did on saturday.
i made a video that i want to share with you. by mistake i posted it on my pictoral blog (that is what i get for getting up at 5:00 am!) anyways here it is
slideshow
it takes awhile for it to load up so be patient.
i hope you enjoy my little walk. i was able to visit with some of our neighbors, watch a family fly a kite, visit with a friend and get some cool ice tea and watch the setting sun slowly sink into the horizon.
i daily thank God for the opportunity to live here and be amongst a people who still value time spent together under the shade of a tree.
i am blessed.
