My hotel really knows how to party. The Xmas party was last night. There was lots of food. (See yesterday’s piggy.) And, I have left over prime rib and some veggies. I will turn that into some sort of steak salad for dinner. Maybe a couple of dinners.
There are also a lot of presents and door prizes. Flat screen TV’s are the favorite door prizes. And, so are cases of toilet paper. In fact, when management realized a couple of years ago how popular cases of toilet paper actually were – now – everyone (well except me) gets a case of toilet paper.
Yesterday also included a walk, the monthly craft fair, Xmas concert at Carlton’s Palace and a boat parade. That’s why I was too tired (and over stuffed) to do much blog-wise last night.
And, today was Xmas Tea. After the tea, I was glad to jump in the ocean. Where I found a nice big old eel.
After the eel got all curled up under a rock – we just stared at each other. I am very easily amused. He/she was about 4 foot long. So, there was lots of eel to hide!

Love the lagoon pictures Peg – take me back to snorkeling and diving memories. Especially the Moray eel and Turtle pics. A little wet and chilly back in the DMV ( and PA ). I was born a Navy brat on Oahu and I guess no matter how far I am from the ocean it’s never far from my mind – enjoy!
