* The BEACH ~ Part 3 *

 Walks by the beach are the best, aren't they?

We think so!

 

And discovering random exercise equipment along the way is just an added bonus :)

What? You know we challenged Papa to go and show us how they worked :)

In case you were worried that we were going through withdrawal from seeing cows on a daily basis, rest your souls- we spotted a few...

Notice some are inside the fence, AND yet one lingers outside still... just like home in S.Asia :)

 

Back to our place

Here are a few more of our favorites about this place:

 

It's beautiful walkways around the place

Levi would always spot this fountain and say:

"FISH-FISH"

A cage full of little colorful birds

We made lots of stops here.

"Tweet Tweet"

An awesome pool w. a shallow end, deep end, and two smaller pools off to the side.

Lots of seats & toys- 

we all enjoyed hanging out here.

 Oh you better believe Craig & I battled out some ping pong matches.

And conveniently, Levi just played in the little play room that is to the right in this picture.

These folks think of everything!

 

 We loved the evening view of the beach:

 Hand in Hand making their way to the waves...

 

"You Comin' Mama?"

 

 What a treat for our souls- getting to see the ocean's waves & the mountains rising up behind them :)

Not so sure what to think of the waves:

One of his favorite activities- RUNNING! 

(His Mama is proud)

 Looking with the waves at our back, behind these trees is our resort and just behind it are those marvelous & wonderful mountains:

  "Well I think that's all for today, you guys..."














                               "BYE!"

* The BEACH ~ Part 1 *

 Levi thought this was appropriate attire since we had made it to the beach:

 

Our place of rest & relaxation at the beach:

 Now for one of the BEST parts of our room- the Balcony & it's VIEW!

"Come out and take a peek guys"

 "Climb up here for an even BETTER view... LOOK!"

 "Let the fun begin!"

"This seems to be a great place to lay down & push my car :)"

 The Outside view of our place:

 "Whew- I'm exhausted... Let's show you more tomorrow, OK?"

-Levi

 

What you have to look forward to tomorrow.... 

Red Meat = A Real Treat ;)

 In the words of Levi these days:

"You see THIS?"

OH YEA! While in Thailand, we got to eat at the OUTBACK Steakhouse :)

Next to this window view overlooking some of the city

(sorry about the flash)

 

 It's not everyday that we get to sink our teeth into some REAL beef- so we were LOVING it!

What is even better is that our sweet friend here knew we would be there on my birthday so she "treated" us to our dinner at Outback... THANKS Beth :)

 

Levi was just happy to get to color and take a break from the stroller:

 And OF COURSE he LOVED the brown bread as much as we did :)

 What was even better was there was this little space behind our booth where he could climb back and play in between eating.

 This shot is looking down into that little space- he got pretty comfy :)

 

YUMMY- A Bloomin' Onion!

 Hanging with Papa:

 We were SO excited once that lovely piece of steak showed up, that we ALMOST forgot to take a picture of it before we completely devoured it- haha.  

So we brought back a picture of the last bite for y'all!
