Last Full Day

The white sand beach.
Ready for the multitude of people.
This is our last full day at the resort.  I have been amazed at all the languages I have heard.  It feels like the melting pot of the world right here on the resort.  So many nationalities.  I have never felt this feeling of being lost among so many kinds of strangers.  It is amazing to hear another language out of people who look and dress very American.  I went to Mexico around 40 years ago and it was as I expected, it seemed as if all the people not in our group spoke Spanish.  I lived in Germany and a lot of the Germans could speak some English, but you heard so much German when you weren't around military it was what you expected.  Here it is different you can't tell what language will be spoken.  This is a very popular place around the world.  It has been open for 8 years and it is beautiful.  It is very well taken care of and the people working here appear to be very happy.  The owner is a Christian and he wants the people working here to serve with their hearts, so anyone you meet automatically puts their hand over their heart and says hello with a big smile.  The people working are very purposeful in what they do and are always pleasant if not happy.  There is one man who spends his days with a brush of sorts making sure the microfiber on the chairs is going the same way.  Talk about attention to detail.  Wow!  They have it going on.  He does his job as if my happiness is determined by the way the chair looks.  Job ethic is very impressive here.  One thing that I had never seen before is the room service box or as Kevin coined it the magic box. You order they put it in the box flip the light and then you go to the box open it turn off the light and walaaah service!

Ken and I had another massage last night.  Mine was great, Ken's was a little rough.  I think the massage should become a weekly expense.  I wonder if I can sell that to Ken?
Ken waiting on me again!
We went into town yesterday after breakfast, and it started raining on us.  It started, however, after I found these great puzzles for my classroom.  I was so excited, but I didn't take any money.  So we hurried back to the hotel in the rain.It was a cold rain, but it was fun walking in the rain with Ken.  We decided to go back downtown after lunch.  I took my money and got my puzzles.  I am so happy!  As Ken says it doesn't take much!  Today is another cloudy day, debating on going to the beach or pool.  We will see.
