Summer is finally here...

The first sign of light in the morning is a good indication of what the weather will be like for that day. We've heard about the torrential downpours that are supposed to come in the afternoon and bring with it the humidity, but that has yet to happen. Instead, the storms are hitting at night, lighting up the sky as if it were daytime, and leaving puddles of water that you are constantly dodging the next day. We are averaging about 3 inches of water when it rains, and the river is now starting to flow, which means the lagoon by the ocean broke through so the river is now flowing into the ocean. It's an amazing sight to see.

When we woke up this morning the sky was as clear as it get possibly be, so I knew it was going to be a hot day, and it is--which means that summer is officially here. The town shuts down from 1:00pm-3:00pm for a siesta, and it's about that time, so we are heading to the beach to siesta on the sand and listen to the ocean waves.

I'll have pictures of the river flowing into the ocean soon...adios!
