I also couldn't help but notice the infestation of dead flies in the pool. My sister is coming to visit in the next few weeks (I am so excited!) - after seeing this lovely picture she is going to be excited too.
Then I noticed the giant pile of dead flies (are they even flies?) over by the drain - seriously, what in the world? Our friends told us about one bug that if you smack while it's biting you, it causes a chemical burn and your skin blisters and peels. Apparently around this time last year several people here experienced that first-hand. I'm really hoping these flies/bugs/whatever are not the same. Otherwise I guess I'll have some great pictures for my blog.
