Happy Thanksgiving everyone! It never ceases to amaze me where there is not one thing that makes me wish I wasn’t here and everyday it seems that I find something to be thankful for here. We had woken up pretty lake, neither one of us are feeling well, Ross is just getting over what he had and I am just starting a cold, I think. My throat is sore and I have been having cold sweats and just not feeling well. We went to Mega to get some water and a few other things and once we got home we were wondering whether or not we should go out for Thanksgiving supper. We decided that we would go and when we were driving we drove past Dick and Mary Carmen’s house and they were out walking their dogs. We stopped to say hi and went to see if we could find the Sandrina restaurant. We weren’t quite sure where it was all we knew it was on Cardenas somewhere. We started at the De Cameron and started north. We found the restaurant about ½ the way down to the market and went in. What a wonderful restaurant! It was like a store at the front with a whole bunch of stuff to buy (the normal) but when you went to the back courtyard it was amazing, everywhere is trees and plants and what an atmosphere. We ordered the turkey dinner of course and got a basket of wonderful bread and butter. Before we got through that they brought a salad, wow, it had a vinaigrette dressing with shredded mozza cheese on top, excellent! We got a huge plate of turkey, dressing, some fabulous mashed potatoes, and the broccoli was very good, kinda spicy.
It has been windy all afternoon and driving to the restaurant we caught glimpses of the ocean and the waves were super high. We decided to stop to hear the ocean before we went home so after supper we went to our beach spot and walked down to the beach. We were there not 5 minutes when we saw a turtle lumbering up right at us and started digging a hole for her eggs. Just when she started to dig the hole another one came up and started to dig her hole, there was another one too to the right of where we were. We watched until it got too dark then we came home. It was so windy at the beach I felt on my skin salt and sand so I took a shower, I feel so much better now. I wasn’t going to write my blog tonight cause I was feeling so yucky, but after seeing the turtles I had to. See the pictures I took!
