Did you know that snow is beautiful but can also hurt your eyes in the sunlight? I am reminded of the first time I gazed at the white paint on a cruise ship in Mexico. Do wear sunglasses. We just love your eyes and we want them to be safe.
Having typed the above I better go and buy sunglasses. I have backed myself into a corner. . .again!

Just imagine…
Fresh coffee in the morning on your private balcony... yoga at the beach... an all-you-can-eat breakfast overlooking the ocean... training until lunch with one of your favourite clinicians... then the afternoon having fun in a beautiful tropical paradise!
