Back to the Beach!

The end of February was cold in Qingdao and so we decided with three weeks still until the second semester we would head back to Sanya. We met up with the Sessions from Beijing and had a great time. It was great because we did absolutely NOTHING. No bus to catch. No tour to take. Nothing to wait on or prepare for. Every morning we would secure our lounges at the beach; visit over breakfast; people watch, fly kites, lounge, read and then head for our favorite frozen fruit smoothies and lunch.....more of the same until dark and then dinner. We ate Thai food every night! In fact, Terry ate the same dish (Mango Beef) every night. We took a one day break from our very tough schedule and went to the "hot baths." We enjoyed massage, hot pools, mud bath, salt buriel and best of all, fish biting massage--all in gorgeous surroundings.
