Playa Tangolunda (Huatulco, day 13)

First thing on the agenda was to clean the fridge burner. In this kind of hot weather, the burner for our fridge runs non stop.

And it does get dirty and it is a regular maintenance item to keep clean. Once a year your fridge propane burner needs to be serviced and cleaned. Ours more often, because we are not plugged into electric very often.

So that took me until almost 8:30am. Now I could relax for the rest of the day!

We did take Whiskey for a walk on a nearby road. We try and take her out fairly early in the morning, and again in the late afternoon. Otherwise, it's just too hot for her during the day.

And I did go for a walk on the beach myself later on in the morning. At the far end of the beach is the Dreams Huatulco Resort, an expensive all-inclusive. The all inclusives are very quiet at this time of year, in fact we were speaking to someone staying at the Crown Pacific across the road. It has 300 rooms, and there are only 99 people there right now. Anyhow, the Dreams resorts don’t do wrist bands. I figured I could pass as a guest, so I wandered up into the resort and looked around. Easily could have sat and had a drink, but that wouldn’t be right…would it? Hmmm.

Back at Sherman, I got ambitious enough to wash one side of Sherman. I’ll do the other side tomorrow morning. Ruth was busy looking for birds!

We both spent some time on the internet, Ruth sure does have a lot of blogs to read, and I like to research the stock market. Ruth did some reading, as well as a little more hand laundry. The time seems to fly right by while we’re doing nothing.

After supper, we decided to go out for the evening. So we walked down the beach to the Dreams Resort. I figure it’s so quiet there that they wouldn’t mind two more people being around for their evening show. So that’s what we did! We sat in two of their pool loungers overloooking the ocean while we waited for the 9:00pm show to start. Then we went and sat down and watched the show. But we were so thirsty! I was “this close” to going up and getting a bottle of water. After all, it’s an all inclusive, and we were at their evening show. But that wouldn’t be right, would it?

The show was a lip sync version of the movie Grease. It was pretty well done, and we enjoyed it. Afterwards, we walked back to the trailer park. Do we feel guilty about sneaking into the Dreams Resort? Maybe a little, but we didn’t order any drinks and our being there didn’t cost them a dime. There you have it, proof once again that you can justify anything you like!
