At the Post and Shop we found a Christmas/New Year's Eve present waiting for us! Jake's mom and Tom sent our Christmas gift, but it took a little longer than expected to get here...
Our gift was full of games to play! Also, KC hasn't seen A Christmas Story before, so we'll be watching that soon!
We spent the afternoon at the beach. Then, we got ready to celebrate New Year's Eve. We assumed (you know what assuming does) the places near our house would be hopping! One of the place's websites even said they would have a band starting at 3:00. So, we left around 7:00 and started driving the short distance... Well, none of the places on the water were open, and most of the restaurants nearby were closed. Thank goodness Desecheo was open! It was packed!
We had a great dinner of mahi mahi, sweet plantains, and mamposteo (rice and beans). Jake thinks it was his first time having rice and beans, but KNOWS it was his first time liking them! ;) KC was happy to hear this since she loves rice and beans after being introduced to them while visiting her cousin in Belize a few years ago.

While driving home we saw a few fireworks, and heard many more throughout the night!

New Year's Day 2015
We had a picnic lunch at the beach today, and spent the day there. The ocean's waves were smaller this afternoon, so we were able to relax and enjoy our time in the water. We spent a lot of time in the water swimming and the rest in the sun! Then, we made a quick stop in the shady pool to cool off. We're excited for our adventure to continue in 2015!
