Thanksgiving 2012 at Cavarete

Our camera got stolen so this is as close as I can get the idea of the place where we stayed in Cabarete for Thanksgiving. It was great! many of the American families came also. It almost seemed like a ward party. It was during the Thanksgiving break which was so perfect because it is not a holiday here. I have learned to go somewhere else for a holiday unless you own your private vacation home. We had told all of the kids to come over but  Pablo was moving, Hernan, Rachael and Mandy are busy in school, Cristi said Brooks couldn't get off work and neither could Ale and Lexi and besides going to the beach is not their ideal vacation because they live right on the beach. Andres is saving to go to Uruguay, Ani has a visa issue, Bianca's work don't allow her to take more days around Holidays and Gabriel and Danae are going to Europe in December so that only left Valentina. She came so we rented a nice three bedroom condo, (we did this wishing others would show up) the place was nice close to the beach and the pool to ourselves. If I had known that only Vale was coming, we could have gone to the all inclusive Hotel for the same price. For thanksgiving we actually went out to eat a turkey dinner at Casa Colonial, a nice boutique hotel. What was fun about this trip was to see people enjoying the waves. Some even got to go horse back riding. Many I think would have like that. Daniel went out with a board and even I did it a couple of times. It was fun  the only problem is that Daniel got a nasty ear infection that lasted for several days.
