What are the chances?
So imagine this...we're standing in line at the Beach Club, waiting for a table so we can have lunch. I'm looking around, doing a little people watching. As this couple walk up, I think, "I know them...they look familiar..." The closer they get, I know I'm right! We've met before but I think, "How ironic to see them here!" And she recognizes me about the same time.
"Oh my gosh! How are you? I can't believe you're here!"
She and I banter back and forth catching up. We glance several times at our husbands who are trying to place where we know each other from. She and I laugh because they can't seem to figure it out. The boys give us both a quizzical look.
"I'm sorry...what was your name again?"
Oh, that's right! It's Monica and Jason.
Finally, we have to clue the boys in--we met last October in Cayman Brac!
We learn that they've added to their family--adopted a little boy who's four month old now. And their daughter is 22 months. And, by the way, they booked this trip on Sunday, just five days ago. They remembered us telling them about the Occidental Grande and thought they'd give it a try.
See, what are the chances?
