M & D Update

I just talked to Mom and Dad. They are okay. They saw a crocodile and some birds.

Here are a couple stories to pass on.

A few days ago M & D went on a snorkeling trip. I thought that was a very un-M&D thing to do but I digress. So the day started out nicely with a 2 hour catamaran cruise to get to the location. Then there was some snorkeling, which I think they enjoyed. Unfortunately, on the way back the weather was not as nice. They had to contend with 7 foot waves. Coming from the middle of a continent, Mom's stomach was not prepared for this and she spent the rest of the evening sick. She said that when they got back to their camper, it felt like the whole thing was swaying.

I believe she felt fine the next day.

So you don't think that Mom's not tough, aparently last night she scraped her elbow and didn't notice until she woke up in a pool of blood. Well, maybe not a pool but they didn't specify so it could have been a pool. She initially blamed Dad (who to prove his manliness, cut the back of his hand the night before) because she didn't know how tough she was.

They tell me that they are having a wonderful time, although I have the above anectdotal evidence to prove contrary. They really do like birds though.
