This next few days before the conference I’m going to take time to explore. My first port of call was of course to find the local Starbucks. Not much difference to the Uk Nd Ireland apart from greater choice of fresh brew (filter) including decaff choice, for just $1.50!

Today i headed down to Coco Beach, the sea was so warm! It’s amazing to think that on the other side just across the pond in Ireland that same Atlantic Ocean is freezing by comparision!

Tomorrow is another day, dont know what I’ll be doing but I’m sure I will come up with something!
