Kiss me sweet, and we'll go flying high in birdland, high in the sky up above... all because we're in love - Ella Fitzgerald

A girl sang this song on American Idol.... and I love it.
and I love Lee.

Yesterday we celebrated Valentine's Day together by spending some time at the beach together (finally!)
Lee had his unified exams in the morning and as soon as he finished (he finished first btw... hopefully that's a good sign!) we headed to Grand Anse!
We spent some time laying in the sun because Lee is as pale as he would be living in Canada in the winter.... playing in the water, although there weren't waves today like there were Saturday!

Did I talk about Saturday?? at the OSO Beach Day with the kid's from Queen Elizabeth's Home the waves were intense!  We were all getting knocked down and drug out to sea.... and covered in sand! my bathing suit was FULL of sand. but it was a fun time of course :)

Anyway, yesterday.... we ate lunch on the beach - peanut butter and jelly, dorito-ish chips, and apples and then started the journey over the mountain at the end of Grand Anse beach to get to Morne Rouge beach... we had never been, but I had heard it was more secluded than Grand Anse (and because all the first term med students had the day off after their exams, they were all at the beach!)
It was a tough walk.... up, up, up a big hill and then down, down, down... but worth it! it was beautiful! and very secluded. 
But then we started to get hot! so we took the walk back up over the hill and down the other side to the Spiceland Mall to get SMOOTHIES! Lee had fruit punch and I had cantaloupe.  Cantaloupe doesn't sound that good... but it is! it's the flavor intensified and lots of sugar :) and they use sweetened condensed milk in their smoothies. they are heaven.

Afterwards we headed home to get the sand and salt washed off and I went to the Queen Elizabeth's Home to play with the kids, like we do every Monday!  It was a fun day.... I was pretty worn out though and thankfully the kids weren't too active.  Amber brought them all sunglasses!  A friend of her's from home bought them for the kids at Walmart... and they loved them!!! It was so sweet to see them so excited.

 

 

Once I got home Lee and I planned to go out to eat... but instead we went and watched the sunset on the cliffs on the end of campus and ordered pizza from Glover's and watched a movie.
I must say it was one of the best Valentine's Day's ever.

 

Lee relaxing for the first time in a month!

On the hill overlooking Grand Anse Beach
it's so pretty!
we must have said 10 times "I can't believe we live here"

The other side of the hill, over looking Morne Rouge Beach (or aka BBC Beach)

There was hardly anyone there, but we spotted our friends and RA's Glenn and Michelle out in the water!
Grenada is a small world :) 

Happy First Married Valentine's Day!
