Birthday

My birthday was celebrated on the beach this year with Larry, Mark and Bert and Elma. It was a lovely sunny day and the water was very calm. It was one of those days when you have to swim frequently to keep cool. It was fun introducing Mark as well as Bert & Elma to the Sosua Public Beach, with all the vendors trying to sell their goods. I chose to take a picture of this Haitian lady and her little girl who were walking by with their fruit and ended up buying a melon for at least triple its store value. These women always impress me with their neck strength, great posture and balance. Beautiful.

Thanks for sharing the day making it special. Also thanks to all who sent birthday wishes by email. It was greatly appreciated, especially feeling so far away from loved ones.
