island. It did not disappoint! They rotate the cruises so there’s one cruise
ship there per day, and almost all the staff is from the boat. There’s only a
handful of people who come over from South Abaco island every day to help, the
rest are different every day depending on what ship is there. All the food
supplies, towels, etc. and brought off the boat and then put back on at the end
of the day.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">We didn’t explore the whole island, but
they have tons of stuff to do. We had one snorkel excursion and planned to
spend the rest of the day loafing on the beach. There’s a huge play area for
the kids that’s built right into the ocean where the water is a couple of feet
deep. The water was clear and warm and perfect.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">We took a boat ride to a rocky area off
the north side of the island and snorkeled there for a while. The water was
really choppy there, and the current was strong, so the kids and I kind of
struggled to not drift out to sea or crash into the rocks some of the time, but
there were so many fish! There was a lot to see. Our guides were very good
about calling us over when they saw something cool, or they would bring things
over to show us. Rob was able to see a 3-foot-long barracuda. After spending
some time there, the boat moved to a calmer, more sandy area and we all swam
down that direction. We didn’t have to work quite so hard there and were more
able to enjoy snorkeling. We saw some stingrays from a distance, and we saw
several big starfish.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">The guides then helped us back on the
boat and they drove us over to a sandbar. We weren’t sure what we were supposed
to do on a sandbar in the middle of the ocean, but that’s exactly what it was.
I looked up Castaway Cay on Google maps and was able to find an image of the
sandbar:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">(Sandy Point is on South Abaco Island,
Bahamas)<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">So we got off the boat in waist-high
water and waded up onto the sandbar, where it was no more than knee-deep. It
was a cool place to splash around in the waves and squish our toes in the sand.
Pretty soon we started noticing some rocks on the bottom – they were sand
dollars. Big ones!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Like 4 and 6 inches
across and 2-3 inches thick. The guides were telling us the white sand dollars
we usually see are dead shells, but living sand dollars are dark brown. It
wasn’t long before we started noticing dark spots in the sand – living sand
dollars! That was a neat thing to see. When you hold them, you can feel their
little spiny feet moving a little. They’re very prickly, and the white sand
looks neat in the patterns on their undersides.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">On our way back to the boat, Robbie
spotted something big and dark in the water. It was a big stingray. That was
cool to see – from a distance, mind you. There were also some small fish now
and then. We left our (non-waterproof) camera on the boat, so I don’t have any
pictures of the sea life we saw there, but here are a couple of pictures of the
area.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">It’s crazy how you can see the
difference between the shallow, light water around the sandbar and then the
dark blue where it drops off into the ocean.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

day. We took a shuttle to a place called Misty Mountain Resort where we rode a
sky ride (ski lift-type) up to the top of a mountain. The line to get on the
sky ride was in a cool jungle-y area with lots of mist and crazy-looking spider
webs.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">When we were waiting in line, we
noticed the workers were chatting up all the tourists & we loved their
accents. They were asking the group ahead of us what type of music they like,
and one of them them said Justin Bieber. When we were getting on, one of them
said to Robbie, “And what about you, little man, you like Justin Bieber?”
Robbie said no, so they asked who he likes and he said Bob Marley. They all
went nuts, cheering and giving him high-fives!<o:p></o:p></span><br />

didn’t get a picture of Robbie in his.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

We took a shuttle to a turtle farm where we got to see huge sea turtles and
hold baby turtles. When you hold a turtle, it will slap the heck out of you
with its flippers unless you rub its tummy.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

with fish and turtles. We spent a lot of time snorkeling there and getting up
close and personal with the fish. One edge of the swimming area was a huge
glass wall with sharks on the other side. There were peacocks just wandering
around, and iguanas would hop in to swim around and sun themselves on the
islands in the lagoon.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

and similar restaurants.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

old enough to go into the “tween” age club, and she could still go into the

farms. I don’t mind. We really don’t smell them very often, and we like seeing
the cows when we go places.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">One of the dairies refurbished some old
machinery used for bottling milk in glass bottles, and they opened a store
where they sell local milk in glass bottles with some specialty flavors. It’s a
cute little shop, and we like that the milk is from “our” cows. We went to
check it out when they opened, and they had some one-day-old calves that we could
pet. The kids absolutely loved it! They were so cute.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

converters were stolen off our Sequoia while we were at church. I guess there’s
a big market for them because they have platinum and other precious metals in
them, and they’re really easy to remove by sawing two pipes. That explains the
high number of “Catalitico y Mofles” shops around us.<o:p></o:p></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">Anyway, one afternoon we came out of
Hobby Lobby and noticed the car next to us leave quickly. When we started the
car, it was obvious something was wrong with our exhaust system – we quickly
put 2 and 2 together and started following the car that left so abruptly. We
got the license plate number and got on the phone with 911. When the guys in
the car noticed we were following them, they started driving all crazy and
making U-turns trying to lose us. They eventually did, and that was that. We
went back to Hobby Lobby and waited for the police to come so we could file a
report.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">Luckily, this time they didn’t get away
with the actual converters; they had sawed through one pipe and almost all the
way through the other pipe. A friend from church referred us to his brother who
would be able to weld the pipes back together.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">This was on a Saturday, so I called my
boss and arranged to take Monday off so I could take the car in for repair. It
started raining Sunday night and didn’t stop. Storm drains in Phoenix can only
handle so much, so by 5am, the city was starting to flood. I saw on the news
that cars were floating down the freeway, and I realized that if I hadn’t taken
the day off I would’ve been one of those. That was definitely a silver lining
to the whole car situation! I’d rather be taking the car in to have pipes
welded than be floating away by myself in the truck before the sun came up.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">Rob made it to work on surface streets, but they cancelled school. It kept raining all morning, and all the water retention areas around our house filled up quickly. Some neighborhoods in Mesa flooded pretty bad, damaging houses, but our area was OK. I waited til later in the day to bring the car to the shop because I was pretty sure we didn’t need water in our pipes on top of everything else.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma",sans-serif;">Then the power got knocked out, so we spent a lot of the morning outside watching the water. It was more than halfway up the poles for the basketball hoops in our neighborhood, so that’s at least 5 feet deep. It washed out the sidewalk that runs along the side of our house, and there were tons of kids out playing in the water. Kayaks and rafts, even. The kids thought I was the meanest mom ever because I didn’t let them go “swimming”. Chocolate-brown water with swift undercurrents leading to tiny storm drains? No thanks.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

consider the 7<sup><span style="font-size: x-small;">th</span></sup> and 8<sup><span style="font-size: x-small;">th</span></sup> grades to be Junior High. There
are several Jr. High dances throughout the year, and they invite the 6<sup><span style="font-size: x-small;">th</span></sup>
graders to the last one. Erin and her best friend went together. It was a sock
hop, so last year’s Halloween costume came in handy! I think I did better this
time with the home-made 50’s cat eye façade for her glasses.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

was a little nervous! Especially since she’s never had any real dental work

We bought it on Craigslist and then turned around and sold our keyboard on
Craigslist. This is much better for Erin to practice on.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

decided to let the cat have a look at it. Keep in mind, our cat is definitely
not a hunter. She would definitely starve to death if she didn’t live with us.
But she was definitely intrigued by it! She isn’t the sharpest crayon in the
box… she sniff the glass and then walk all around it. Then she would paw at the
glass and scoot it around the floor, but she didn’t know she could just reach
into the glass to get the lizard. It was pretty funny. We set the lizard free
outside before she had a chance to figure things out. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

next week – 6<sup><span style="font-size: x-small;">th</span></sup> Grade and 2<sup><span style="font-size: x-small;">nd</span></sup> Grade. Even though they go
to a K-8 school, this is Erin’s last year in elementary school. Next year, she
will be considered junior high, and their class structure changes a little so
it’s not their homeroom teacher teaching all the subjects.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif";">This is also the first year they get
out of school at the same time. Grades K-1 go to school until 3:00 but grades
2-8 don’t get out until 4:00. For the last two years, they went to a friend’s
house after school until Rob or I could pick them up. This year, Erin has a
house key and they let themselves in when the carpool drops them off.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I usually get home about a half hour after
they do.</span></div>

school started just to spend time with the kids and finish getting
back-to-school stuff together. We had lunch with Rob and Chipotle and then the
kids wanted to go to the state capitol. There’s a small museum inside, and Robbie
really likes the memorabilia and replica of the USS Arizona.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

each invite a friend to Big Surf like last year. Robbie invited our next-door
neighbor Ziondric and Erin invited her best friend Rachel. This was only a
couple of days after she broke her toe. She wore water shoes, which kept her
splint in place. Aside from banging it a couple of times in the wave pool or on
the slides, she did fine.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif";">Since I’m in the Young Women’s
organization at church, I went to girls’ camp this year. It was a three-day
camp, and the last day was Erin’s birthday. On the way home, Rob called to say
some friends had invited us to an AZ Rattlers game that night and did I want to
go?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I got cleaned up and off we went! I
had never been to an arena football game, but it was pretty fun. The kids really
liked it.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif";">Since I wasn’t able to make a cake,
we picked up a cinnamon cake on our way home and we had it after church the
next day. Erin is growing up fast!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
