Primer dia completa

My first full day here... I slept in because I was exhausted from traveling yesterday. Luckily all my bags arrived. Woke up in my pink apartment and was so excited to walk out side and have the beach right in front of me. Went to the store next door to buy a toothbrush (oops) and coconut bread for breakfast. Last night the doctors and I went to the "Reef Rider" floating bar, where the owner told us we could catch a ride on this bar/boat to West Bay in the morning. So insted of paying for a water taxi, I got a free ride to the most beautiful beach on the island. The water is bright turquiose and clear and white sand extends into the shallow water. I spent all day swimming in the warm water, reading, and eating fresh fish ceviche.

I am really glad to have the resident doctors here now so I have friends to hang out with right away. They showed me around the main strip last night which was helpful. They are fun and young and I think we will make a good team in the clinic.

Tomorrow is a holiday, although no local have been able to tell us yet what the holiday is. The hospital is closed though, so I have another day before begining work. So far things are great.



Here is a picture I took this morning of the beach right across from my apartment. Anyone want to come visit??
