We have rain and clouds hovering above and about us in Saipan. It's likely going to last all week. I don't mind. It gives breaks from the heat, but ooo boy, when the sun comes out for a bit is it hot. The extra humidity + sun makes me melt. I've decided that I'll be taking 2 showers everyday from now on. I usually have been taking one at night because after a day in the tropics, I feel grimy and don't want to sleep in grime. Even if it is tropical grime.
When I wake up I tend to be rather sluggish, and even coffee doesn't seem to do the trick. I was so hot and sticky today that I hopped in the shower and it was like magic. It's still hot, but I feel a lot more energetic. Maybe I forgot that about myself--that I need a shower to wake up.
I've been doing some art and walking the dogs and occasionally going to the store for raisins or juice. I have been swimming less because the water has been murky due to the rain, plus the beach has been surprisingly crowded lately.
Today I'm going to take my laundry to be done (yup they'll do it for you!) and the plan is to see if I can find Lau Lau Beach and check it out and take some photos.
