Fun at the beach!

Today was a day filled with relaxation after all the bustling activity from the last couple of days. We had the opportunity to do a little shopping in town and then... off to the beach! The weather was cloudy yet warm, the water salty and marvelous, and the waves wonderful! We had a fabulous time splashing and playing!

For lunch we all tried a dish called 'Bake & Shark'... my first shark experience. It consists of fried bread and breaded steak. The condiment options were coleslaw, lettuce, tomatoes, and a few varieties of sauce. I prefer steak, but am glad I seized the opportunity to try something new.

After we returned to the missions compound, I was told there was a baby alligator near the dining hall. So, I grabbed my camera and got my picture taken to add to my collection! After carefully washing my hands, we had a delightful dinner of spaghetti and garlic break. Overall, a fabulous day indeed! ~Crystal Keller
