Love you Daddy

I thought this was quite apt as it will be my own Dads memorial on 29th and I miss him so very much.

Love you Daddy is by Mo’s Digital Pencil and every time I look at it I’m reminded of how special Dads are.

Puerto Plata Splatter

 
To we have had big storms, so much so that I have come to the conclusion that the Puerto Plata Splatter is the storms they have and not the dicky tummy runs.
Believe me though that the rain storms are a relief when they do come as the heat here is really something else. Even when is does rain it is still beautiful, normally out of our patio you can see the the horizon between the sea and the sky but not today.
 

And yet I still managed to get sunburnt shoulders while shooting archery, oh yes and I won.
I was telling Lauren (daughter) that she would love it here, the children's club is brilliant, we were watching them having fun today.
This is also just out of our patio.

The Art of Towel Folding

We see napkin folding all the time and let's face it, there is some amazing folds.

Our maid here on holiday has her own amazing folding skills and each day we see something new appear.

 

It is always a pleasure to come back to our room and have the surprise of freshly folded towels.

The Cobra

The Bird in the Nest

 

Kissing Swans

The Bride

So nice I got it twice.

Aren't they wonderful?

Poolside Light Show

Thursday evening was the light show and it had an amazing atmosphere, all of the tables were set by the poolside for evening dinner and entertainment.
Even some of the hotels guests were roped in to make the evening a success.
This is guests and entertainment staff doing their stuff.
Also a fire eater, better him than me in this heat.

After this fire eating flame blower was the dancers, very clever when you think it was a floating stage.
It went on into the early hours but we left it there, too old or just simply too tired to see it to the end.
And a new towel fold for today.

Singing so Beautifully–Winter Limited Edition Promarkers

Or maybe the Cats Chorus.

Another card made with the Winter Limited Edition ProMarkers by Letraset 

I used Singing so Beautifully by Mo’s Digital pencil for my image and used the Polar Blue and the Icicles for the grey/blue cat and the Eggnog and sandstone for the gingerish cat

Well that is nearly a full week of my holiday gone already, I’ll be like a bronzed beached whale laying beside the pool.
