After the fabulous boat-ride, we got to that private island, and it was worth all the plane, bus, and boat rides it took us to get there. Sure, the guys still had work to do, but the girls got to hang out with pelicans, toucans, humming birds, iguanas, blue herons, parakeets and a large variety of multi-colored birds that I would not know how to name, all running wild. Rumor had it that the guys had also heard howling monkeys on the island, but we were not so lucky and missed out on the monkeys.

We stayed on the island for 2 days, with great company, and got a chance to go snorkeling on the Coral Reef. The visibility was not the greatest so I don´t have any good shots, but we still got to see quite a few tropical fish up close. And the best part of the snorkeling was the birds We got to see them up close, and witnessed a flock of pelicans feeding on some jumping fish we had been admiring a few minutes prior. As Romeo´s sister-in-law put it, it was National Geographic live for the two of us!
