New camera

We had my mom deliver our new camera to us (she's here visiting for 3 weeks), it is a super fun camera to have here. It's a compact waterproof digital camera made by Olympus. Here are a few pictures from the pool and beach over the last few days.

Ana, doing what she does best, playing in the water.

Feisty crab, ready to battle.

Beautiful seastar!

Mateo, self portrait underwater. Good one!

Just Another Day in Paradise

We borrowed a neighbors kayak today and now we are on a mission to get kayaks. We paddled straight out from our house at low tide. We paddle about 3/4 mile offshore where the deeper water begins. Most of the way we were on sandbars and able to jump out and swim with the kids. It's pretty amazing to be that far off shore and still be able to touch. It's beautiful!
We did some exploring along the beach on the way back and found a great snorkling spot right off the beach about 100 yards down from our house. We really are in paradise!
