early rising, late breakfast

I love getting up early. Well, not exactly. I love having a compelling reason to get up to do something early in the morning. I used to be a caterer for a hot air balloon company and I would have to go in to the kitchen about 2:00 in the morning. That was extreme. Yesterday, though, we got up and went canoeing with a friend. The tide was high, which gave us a chance to explore the mangroves. It was beautiful.

One of the best things in life has got to be doing something active in the wee hours and then having a great breakfast. Our canoe guide came over and we cooked bacon and eggs; Paul's homemade bread for toast; and a smoothie of frozen bananas and raspberries. Sweet, and well-earned.
