Our plan is to mostly spend a relaxing day around the beach and pool on Saturday. Playa Hermosa is a surfers beach, and they are out in full-force. There's a local surf competition scheduled starting around 4pm, 3.5km up the beach, and they may be out practicing this morning. It's fascinating to watch.
Once again Freddy arrives, this time bringing us Mary and George. Yeah, the gang is all here! As sunset approaches we meander down to the beach. There's a beach wedding at one of the houses in the community and the party is at the drinks and appetizer stage. The bride and groom pose for a photo as the sun goes down in the distance.
James makes up some burgers for our evening meal. And once again we find ourselves gathered on the patio talking and laughing after dinner.

By 6:30 am the wildlife is active and we start a slow Sunday morning laying in bed for a while listening. After a bit the Macaw's are cawing quite loudly, as if yelling at us to get up. George has already started the coffee when we make our way downstairs. About 8 am everyone is up. By 10 am several have taken walks on the beach and we've decided to go into town for breakfast and more provisions. However, we have a small glitch. Someone (probably me) has inadvertently locked us out of the master suite. We call the owner of the house and he tells us he will be here in an hour. I feel so bad about bothering him - especially on a Sunday morning. William volunteers to stay back and the rest of us pile into two taxi's.
The afternoon is spent watching the iguanas on our lawn and patio then playing at the beach and pool. We also have time to consume some of Yoyo's famous cocktails. Toward evening we make our way to the beach to watch the sunset.

James then fires up the little grill made from a car or truck rim and rebar with a grate over the top that we found in the laundry room. Quite ingenious. He grills chorizo for the crowd, finishing them off in the oven since he must work in batches. Accompanied by salad and cooked veges it's a little feast.
