Shopping
This island totally exist on tourism, so SHOPPING abounds!! There are shops for everything. YUMBO
is giant complex right behind our hotel and it also has a ton of restaurants and clubs - a very hopping spot all day long. Today, Peter & Cris and I explored further and took a free bus to another part of the island, Puerto Rico
and the bus was provided by the Mogan Mall.
Shops were a bit more upscale here but it was interesting to see a more arid side of the island.

I got to do 14 dives and 5 snorkel trips over our two weeks at Eco Cove Resort. I feel much more confident and comfortable diving, practice does truly help! Eco has these t-shirts that list all their Resort excursions - we made a nice dent in all of them and it's hard to pick a favorite!
Friday nights at Eco Cove Resort are sunset excursion time. All the guest are taken over to tiny Yeben Rock Island. This time the tde ws coming in quickly and alot of the island was already covered by water but that didn't dampen our party! We had a cooler of beer this time too! We also have become feriendly with the 2 families that were there sharing with us.
