Brings back memories of when the girls were leaning to drive. Because I was so nervous they preferred DH. Also, it looked funny when I was sitting in the back like they were my driver

We plan on being at the port at 9am. I know you can't get in that early but it was fun to sit in the parking lot across the road and watch people leaving. Were staying at WDW but i make my family get up insanely early and get out the door i want on the ship ASAP.

Mosquitos are a problem during the rainy season - but amazingly the bugs and snakes are not much of a problem.

We were told once that there was a snake in our garden - but we've never seen one and that was 2 years ago.

We do have a pair of vultures with a nest in our palm tree - they can get loud, but never come down to the garden level. And we have a colony of fruit bats way up in the top of the mango trees. But they only come out at dusk and then it's really cool to watch them swoop down to the pool for a cool drink.

I think we need pictures...........

Oh my word you have bats in your tree. I would never go outside I'm petrified of those things. To be honest I'm terrified of all creepy crawly creatures the iguanas in Cozumel freaked me out completely.
