Tree trimmers arrived today (they trim every three months) and provided the morning’s entertainment. Inside one tree was a beautiful pod. Karen thought briefly about taking it home but then her better judgment kicked in, and we just photographed it.

The ocean claimed a lot more sand overnight, creating some steep banks.

If it’s Thursday it’s Pupu Night here at Hoyochi Nikko! After a delicious banquet of pupus, Jeff (an owner) and I blew our conch shells to celebrate sunset.
