Intercontinental Hotel

We slept fairly good and awoke at 9:00 AM, dressed and headed for breakfast. It is raining and looks like it might rain all day. The staff just smiles and say, "It is December." I guess that means in it the rainy season. 

The lobby is lovely 

and huge. The Christmas decorations are so beautiful- even the airport with its orchids and lights was wonderful. 

After a buffet breakfast, Jim went off to find postcards and I checked us

 in with the Oceania Cruise  folks and did a little photo safari of the hotel. 

The Christmas Tree made from pasta in the restaurant was a sight to behold. 

There is 

a nice shopping area just outside the hotel. It looks really fancy and nice. I have hopes that the rain will stop, but whatever is OK because we are in "get over jet-lag" mode.
