This morning consisted of a banana smoothie from a tree growing on our rental property and whale watching. It's all pretty relaxing and convenient to use lucas' nap as an excuse to lounge around.
With all this relaxation time one notices things that normally one wouldn't have time for. One of the things that I've noticed is the vacation being planned around meals. I don't need to eat every three hours but my travelling companions do. Fifteen minutes after finishing a meal, talk about the next one begins. I can feel their anxiety about not knowing when or where the next meal will come from as they wipe any excess food of their faces.
Lucas seems to follow the same eating pattern, but he is after all only 17 months old. My problem is that when I see people eating, it does look enticing and I order food regardless of whether I'm hungry.
Today was a good example. We had appetizers, that really was a meal unto itself, and later bought some ahi tuna for grilling later that evening. Problem was the appetizers finished at 5pm and we were grilling by 7:30. Wasn't really hungry but I couldn't very well pass up some fresh tuna.
Good thing I didn't because it was delicious.
