Surprise Visitors!

Good morning! It's another fine day in Mexico...

But Mama said there would be a surprise today...

Is it another towel animal? Cause I've seen a few of those since I got here...

 Not sure what this one was supposed to be?

I think this one is a bear? But Mama said it wasn't a towel animal...

It's Rose!!! Cool!

And Rose bought one of her stuffie pals! Everyone, meet Otto... he's an Otter! River otter apparently... not sea otter... so he's not going in the water here!

Hi Otto!

I had to introduce Otto to the idea of sunscreen... cause it is beary sunny down here...

Boy... with that long tail, Otto has a lot of surface area to cover in sunscreen!

But finally we can relax on our beach blankets and enjoy the sun.

Rose tried to make a couple of hammocks for us but... this one was a bit short for me...

And way too narrow for Otto....

So she tried a double hammock made from a sarong but... it was too flimsy. Oh well!

We thought we could build a sand castle...

We helped Rose by supervising but... she thought she should supervise sooo...

 We ended up having to get to work!

Collecting bits of coral and sea shells that had washed up...

And decorating the castle...

Whew... can we rest now?? Rose sure is a taskmaster! I'm pooped!!

Actually... we all were! So that's good... we can all nap for a while!
