These past couple of days have gone by kinda quickly but work has been pretty slow. It's been raining and cloudy and since we didn't have the proper tools we couldn't lay down the newspaper and mulch and stuff. So Pete and I have been measuring the trails and drawing them out on a map (Geo 12 is applicable in real life! gasp?) which is actually pretty difficult. Yesterday we were in the bug infested forest when BUCKETS of rain feel down upon us. I was showing Pete a wormy thing on a leaf and when I pointed at it it just FELL down on me. What the heck kind of defence mechanism is that? Something comes close to me so I just fall on them? stupid. and scary. I hate bugs. Anyways just then it started to rain and we had to run out of the forest and collect our stuff for the 10 minute walk to the office. Luckily one of the volunteers saw us and gave us a ride back. Today and yesterday afternoon we basically drew out the map and cleaned out a store room..kinda (played some mind trap).
After work around 5:30 we went down to the beach had a picnic dinner of wraps that Alex prepared and played games like soccer, jackpot and frisbee. It was pretty fun and after we all went out to the bar. There's a bar pretty close to us (15 min walk) and then a really cool pirate bar near the ferry (another 15 min walk) so we went there too. It's really interesting to go to these bars and meet other people. There's a lot of bilingual people here and we've met some interesting folks. Seeing as how I have to work tomorrow and then volunteer at the Celebration de Levis until midnight I think I should go to sleep. Talk to you later gator!
