We had the best time in Kenting. We just relaxed, did one or two things each day, rested, slept, played fooseball, read books, collected shells. Our new pets are five hermit crabs we brought home. I think Nathaniel sees his as his own little moveable playthings. Timothy built a nice little habitat for his. Three have switched to new shells since we got them home, which was fun to watch. They actually try on the shells, and if they don't like it they will switch back. They're very choosey.
The waves at the beach were huge, we are all sunburned, and we have a huge bag of shells to add to our collection. It's always fun looking for little treasures. Timothy saw an eel in a tidal pool. He was actually in the pool with it, and jumped out real quick when he saw it go for a shell. A dog took over our umbrella....dug a big hole to cool off in. It was cute, but still! Go carts were a nice little diversion. Cheap and lots of fun. Paintball for about 20 minutes...really not worth the money. Ran over dog poo that made the whole van smell until we found a carwash to wash the tires off. Found a couple of back roads that lead to convenient places, and enjoyed the aquarium again. This time the kids brought their bathing suits and swam in the wading pool. Very fun. Oh, and drove over to the Pacific side of the island, which is absolutely breathtaking. Really, really beautiful. Cliffs, strong winds....Nathaniel understanding the reasoning behind the saying, "Don't spit into the wind." Stood at the very tip of the island. Very cool to look on the left and see the Pacific, and look to the right and see the Taiwan Straights. Water as clear as pool water...great scuba diving and wonderful weather altogether.
As soon as T downloads pictures to my computer I'll post some. Got some new SpongeBob pictures by T. :)
