How's it going????

Well, it's been almost one week, time flies even on an Island! Sorry, I have not been up to date. My goal is to post a picture, a sentence, a paragraph, something and I figure why not blog about it!
I landed on the Island on Tuesday afternoon and have felt extremely welcomed by everyone, had a little sign with my name on it and I'm known as the girl from Beverly Hills - ha ha.
The Spa is BEAUTIFUL!!!! A true spa, complete with a Sanctuary room and an Angel room. The Sanctuary room has a very spacious changing area that leads to the showers, a steam, a sauna and a jacuzzi. When you enter the Angel room you are lead to your own little nook where you enjoy books and perhaps some cookies, fruits, or some nuts and of course fruit infused water. The decor is simple and elegant - silver and white.
I have been taking in a lot of information about The Ritz, Did you know Cesar Ritz is the man behind "line-ups"? Yes, he began this tradition back in the early 1900's. I find The Ritz is a very family orientated company - they have many family activities. For instance, Jean-Michel Cousteau’s Ambassadors of the Environment (AOTE) is an educational program dedicated to engaging people of all ages with their natural and cultural environment. It's a really neat program they have for the kids, they learn how to make recycled paper, and go out on excursions. They also provide a lot outings for instance because the Spa is the # 1 (NUMBER ONE) Spa in gallup scores in all 73 properties we get a Boat PARTY - hey!!!!!!
I will be sure to take my camera then. The weather has been fantastic - it's not as humid as I thought it would be. I walk to work - no car for now and I am very content with it! :-)
I am able to receive mail at the hotel just send it attention Silver Rain Spa Jasmine Samano.
Just an FYI: all packages are checked and subject to a duty tax. Bah Humbug.
They use two currencies here the USD and the CI it's a little confusing for me right now so I will have wait and see about this whole 0.80 CI to $1 USD. Everyone says I will be saving quite a bit so lets wait and see.
Thank you all for the support.
I will take pictures -
