Wonderful weekend

Well it's tuesday now, i am at the school using thier computers since I am done all my teaching for the day.
We had a wonderful weekend, we went to a hotel in Bata Fringie called the Park Royal. It was beautfiul. Our room was amazing...the pool was one of the nicest pools ever, the beach was busy but nice. Amy (Duffy) and I went jet skiing which was amazing, I cant wait to get pictures up on here to show everyone.
We got to the hotel on Friday afternoon and sat around by the pool all afternoon, had a few cocktales during happy hour, then we all shared Nacho's.....also wonderful. After that we decided to go to the night markets. My driver (who drives us to and from school each day) told me that we should be able to get anywhere from 30-50% off what they are asking for. So off we went, the first night I bought a cute bag (good use for school) it is small and made of a traditional chinese print. Then i also bought a really interesting wooden bag i just hope i can get it back in the country. Each of those bags worked out to be about $4 each. After we did one side of the market (which just runs up and down the main street) we ended up in a little cafe that we walked by. It was called The Kahuna Cafe. We only stopped because they were playing Jack Johnson and Duffy and I just couldn't resist! So we sat in there and had a drink, played some cards and just chatted. Then back to the hotel and off to bed, in the most comfortable beds ever! (even bets out Hamilton Island beds)
Saturday morning came and Duffy and I went down for breakfast, which was amazing, then back up to get our suits on for the pool/beach. On the way up we met up with Nat and Michele who planned to meet us later on the beach.
Have to run, been called to do another class.....will finish up later on today!!
