We visited Ocean Point for breakfast again.
A little something different for the day involved AquaFit in the pool with Andre from the fitness center. Chris and I both joined in. I would say it was a little easier for him at 6’4” to my 5’2” since the water was 4’4”. I could do all of the upper body workouts but any exercise with lunges or squats just didn’t work! Andre brought foam dumbbells for all of the participants to use. It was a surprisingly hard workout with the dumbbells and the resistance of the water! Even though we had done our two miles earlier in the morning, it was nice to get some more exercise in.
Our afternoon included a snorkeling and swimming excursion on a boat tour with a visit to Rick’s Cafe. We signed up to go with Patrick and Ryan and enjoyed their company.
The snorkeling was fun with a few colorful fish to see. I even saw a big conch shell. The workers seemed to be collecting the shells (probably to sell later).
Rick’s Cafe was crazy with other boat tours picking up and dropping off people. There were also people diving off the cliffs—some for the entertainment and tips and some for the thrill.
I wasn't watching the guy that came from the top corner. He had a rough landing!
When it was time for us to return to our boat, we waited on the stairs for a bit while others tours were picked up and dropped off. It was kind of crazy.
Since it was advertised as a “Sunset Cruise”, we arrived back in the bay outside of Royalton and watched the sun go down.
We were also watching a storm roll in; it was definitely raining at our drop off point. The boat could only get so close to shore and then we had to slosh through the water the rest of the way. We were getting wet already, so no big deal.
We did have dinner reservations at 7 and got back to the Royalton at 6:40. We were on the far side of the resort and had to race the half mile back to our room on the other side of the resort. Lots of exercise today!
I don’t think I have ever gone to dinner with soaking wet hair and no makeup while on vacation, but we were meeting up with Patrick and Ryan again plus another lady—Marsha—whose husband had sent her to the resort for a few days all by herself.
We arrived for dinner at “Hunter”, the onsite steak restaurant, met up with Marsha and then proceeded to wait for Patrick and Ryan for twenty minutes!
There was a Bob Marley tribute band singing and playing right outside of “Hunter”. We stopped to listen, but said goodnight to Patrick and Ryan after a bit.
