Dec 15: This morning we enjoyed another delicious breakfast on the rooftop of our hotel. We have had no issue adjusting to Indian food for breakfast. The hindi version of the X-factor was on tv so we indulged in that for a while as we prepared to step out and walk around. I suggested that we take a tuk tuk so we flagged one down and agreed to stop at a tourist trap shop first so that our driver would get free gas. These shops are usually off the beaten path so th...

As I said, we drank from the goonsack in the afternoon before hitting the bar 'Down Under' for our dinner. We each got $10 steak and fries and b...

Friday Feb 22nd: Today was our jetski trek to daydream island. I drove first and absolutely loved it. It took some time getting used to the power of the jetski. The ocean was very calm which made for fairly bump-free riding. Daydream island was unreal. A mega-billionaire owns it and built a fancy resort there. We were able to visit the open-air aquarium and feed barramundi, sharks, and sting rays. It was a really cool experience. Aaron drove on the way back and ...
