Day 10-Last day here in Rincon

It is almost as if the island sensed we are leaving Rincon today as the ocean went back to being really small today (waist to chest high). Aaron feels very lucky to have caught waves pretty much every day we have been here as the waves here can be very fickle this time of year and the potential to not catch any waves of quality during the early season is a definite reality. We are having a slow, lazy last day in Rincon today. Mary Ann and Sean took a nap this morning while Aaron watched Kelly Slater win his 9th world title on the live webcast from Mundaka, Spain. Now we are heading off to Domes beach so Mary Ann can do some boogie boarding before getting our stuff packed to head to San Juan tomorrow morning. On the right of this blog page we downloaded a song that we really like that we have been hearing on the radio every day during our travels. The song translates to "I owe everything to him" and talks about remembering the importance of a higher power in our lives. We have deemed this as "our song" and really enjoy the inspirational message it offers. Leaving Rincon will be hard because there are so many great memories we will bring with us from this beautiful place. We know that we will some day come back to this part of the world and are ready to move on to see what Old San Juan has to offer. Stay tuned for pics and blogs from the last few days of our trip. No waves are expected for the end of our trip, so it looks like we will be mostly sightseeing for our last days. Right about now we are starting to get a little homesick and look forward to seeing our friends and family soon. As great as the Caribbean is, there is still no place like home.
