Día Cuarenta Uno

Spicy Prawns - from lunch yesterday.

Seafood Soup - from lunch yesterday.

This morning the sky filled with blue. The sun poured down golden rays. And the weather warmed up enough to take a long walk along the beach. And what a glorious walk it was. It was perhaps the most beautiful walk we've ever taken. I'll provide photographic accompaniment later on.

We called down for room service this morning and found out that there was none - due to the holiday. But, we were told that there was a brunch available. So, we gave it a try. And, I'm glad we did. The selection of LC foods available at the brunch was much broader than what the regular menu provided. I'll also post a picture of my plate later in the day.

I hope you're all having a fantastic New Years!
