Emily's First Catch, Marks' First Goal!

Sometimes you have to listen to the words of a nine year-old who told Lisa last week that she never pays any attention because she works too much... time for a break. This morning was gorgeous and hot and sunny and the ocean was still. Lisa and Emily went snorkeling (well Lisa is still getting the hang of it with no floaty so she went almost snorkeling) and Emily brought in her first catch. She dove down to the bottom of the ocean and brought up this conch. He wasn't big enough to eat though so we had to throw him back. The afternoon was spent on the Rugby Club field at Mark's first Bahama's League game where he scored his first goal in the Bahamas! In the words of the Bahamanian youth on the sidelines - "that old man is da best playa on da field - you teach 'dem Pops!"

Sounds wonderful! The more I read your blog the more I start to think it's time to emigrate!

It really sounds like paradise. And you guys are really settling in. I love the comments about Mark. That's so funny! And Emily looks beautiful in her new swim suit!
