Sunday we had nothing scheduled until 2pm. So we slept in at the Hotel - which means till about 0800 Haver time. We got up and did the Plyometrics and Abs workouts then headed down to the buffet for breakfast/lunch. The buffet was pretty much the same, but becaus
e it was Sunday - it cost us $90 instead of the $60 we had paid before. Nothing like paying $45 for two fried eggs, toast, fruit, juice and coffee....... I then brought Chris back up to the room and tortured him with the hour and a half Yoga work out. He hung in there and did pretty well. I am so proud of him.

I am so proud of him.Of note, the expat families/wives are pretty, fun, and look like normal Mom's from the U.S. But I have been paying attention to the local Venezuelan women and I have learned three important lessons: I am considered small chested, I am considered small bottomed, BLING is the THING. The more glitz, the better. There are medical spas EVERYWHERE - sadly, though, there are no nail shops!!!! The land of the $20 pedicure is not here. Some Koren family could move in here and clean up shop. KT Nails #9 (Venezuelan branch). Seriously, inexpensive nails would go over big here!!!!
Jaime picked us up at two and we headed to Stacey and John Olson's apartment for a "fiesta." Chris is replacing Stacey and she is moving to Indonesia to head up a large office there. Her apartment was in the same building as Chris and Tara Turner's (where we had gone for dinner the first night), and was just as GEORGOUS! A third Chevron family live
s there as well, and all of their kids get along really well. Several Chevron families were there to meet us and another couple who is moving to Puerto La Cruz - it was very nice, the food was delicious and we had a great time meeting everyone. If we can get an apartment in that building we will likely choose that one for more than one reason: The apartments are beautiful, the grounds are like paradise with playground, pool, lots of green space, incredible workout room, etc. We will be shown other apartments tomorrow - and some may be bigger or nicer inside, but having other children around, and lots of space for the kids to play is very important to us. I can't wait to see what is available tomorrow! We here that the other apartments do not have a nice or large of grounds as the one we visited. We left there at about 6:30 pm and were brought back to the hotel. We then walked accross to the Italian Restauraunt across from the hotel, had a nice dinner, then went back home to bed.
