A day on the beach

Another fine day. Went to beach without camera for fear of monkey pilferings so no photos today.

 Stopped as we walked down the road to watch a three toed sloth climbing back up a tree with exaggerated care. For the scatologically obsessed section of my readership, sloths do everything up a tree except defecate. For this they descend approximately weekly, losing up to a third of their bodyweight during the process.

When we reached it, the sea was warm, the beach was superb and backed with shady trees only occasionally containing monkeys, none of which came anywhere near us.

We walked to the end where Christine began paddling in a small freshwater lagoon behind the beach until I drew her attention to the sign saying 'Beware of crocodiles'.

Returned to the hotel hot and sticky but neither sunburnt nor molested by the local wildlife.
