Changes in Attitude, Changes in Latitude...



After landing on la Isla de Encanto (Island of Enchantment for all you gringos), we got to do some exploring.  Our housing is like a little compound- not on the actual USCG base, but you do have to have an ID to come inside.  


Here's the fence with razor wire around the top.  This shows the walking/running path too, which is a 1.1 mile loop around the perimeter.



We've enjoyed seeing the flora and fauna of a new place- a new latitude.  Here is a baby bird we found, and a sweet spotty egg.  I think I've also discovered a new bird species- it is not in my "Birds of the West Indies" book.  And stay tuned for some pics of the gorgeous flowering trees in our neighborhood.


And here is the wonderful pool we can walk to, where we've been swimming and meeting neighbors.  This is so exciting!  The kids are loving it, and already becoming stronger swimmers.  And this pool will be open all year, baby!  Endless Summer- here we come!!
