Took a half day Friday and went swimming!

After working the morning, we picked up some friends and headed to Bassin Bleu for a little splishy-splashy.  The ride there was even better than the swim.  Maybe.

First we had to drive our big blue truck across the river.

Everyone knows that after "over the river" is "through the woods".

From there, the views started to get incredible.

Our first glimpse of the ocean on this drive.

I sure hope that's metric percent...

Helpfully, they had paved half the road.

This truck was at the top. I wanted to take it home with me.

Once you get to the top, it's a short hike to the swimming holes.

The first - Bassin Cheval. Lots of horse poop around to help me remember the name.

Bassin Yes.  The guides told us "This is nothing. Bassin Bleu is much better."

Bassin N...n.....notgonnaworryaboutit.

Chilly and refreshing!

Gorgeous.

Claudy and Sami cheesing it hard. These guys are super cool.

A waterfall - we should swim to it!

it was loud under there.  I SAID, IT WAS LOUD UNDER THERE.

Hiding in the cave, trying to avoid the call that it was time to go!
