We have consumed a LOT of coconut smoothies!
A view of the ocean from the front door of our hotel
We explored a mountain known in English as "Lover's Mountain"
The literal meaning is "Lu" (deer) "hui" (turn) "tou" (head) in memory of the man who was deer hunting and was about to shoot the deer when the deer turned into a beautiful woman. They fell in love and were wed on this very mountain. haha...so romantic...
A view of Sanya from the top of the mountain!
Joe is SO GOOD at doing the "Chinese man pose" !!!

Lovers... ...the legend is true... this mountain is magical (sigh)
beauty all around!
Nica expressing pure excitemnt and joy with the palmtrees decorated for Christmas!
Here is the statue at the top of the mountain in honor of the two lovers... it can be seen for miles around!!!
After hiking we enjoyed a great thai dinner!
We saw monkeys in the trees as we were going back down the mountain! Some came quite close to us, but it was hard to get a photo b/c it was so dark, but we got a few! So cool!
A view of the city at night from the top of the mountain.
and a view of "our" beach at night!
We love you all!! We are sadly preparing to leave Sanya soon, but will post a few more pics of our final days there soon!
hugs from Joe & Nica (and baby!!)
