uuubaaa uubaaa for cuuubaa



 Me and joe were chosen, along with a few other couples, to get on stage for Valentine`s day and participate in some game competitions. WE WON!! just because we`re that good...ooohh yeaaaa! hahaha. scored two bottles of RUM!! it sure does pay to volunteer to be a monkey sometimes!


                                                  The view from our hotel compartment


                                                                  Some of the gang



                                                              FOOD!! at an Alacart


                          Pink drinks for EVERYONE! twas my birthday on the 12th and Sue`s on the 16th!



                                                                    on the beach







                                                        SNORKELING TIME








                                               the maid would decorate all our towels every morning




                                                     Valentine`s Day cuban fashion show!







                                                                      PIG ROAST





                                                      the locals and their homemade gym
                                                          `DINOSAUR TRAINING!` says joe



                                                                      the nearby village.







 we took a `train ride`through the mountains to another small village. sooo beautiful along the way








                                              Joy comes each year and brings the kids clothing.
                    during the train ride, we`d throw little candies to the children standing outside their homes...AWW you should see the look on their faces. most don`t know what a candy is or what to do with it. to think we need more! the way one small candy can light up a child`s face and make his world go round`..we have TOO much!!


                                              the puppy wanted the little girl`s candy


                                             giving Jason`s old clothing to a little boy same age


                                                   giving the kids some snacks for after school

























                              HOOOOOOOMEE! to the munchkin who woke us up at 8 sharp. (after we finally made it home by 6 am!!) I missed him so much!



THEE END!!
