Day 7

Here are Myles and Hannah with some perspective from Playa Gigante:

Today was the group’s first full day at the beach house!  It felt really nice to sleep in and wake up in a well air conditioned room. As soon as you step out the door, you are greeted with an extravagent sunrise that is reflecting over a beautiful view of the bay. this day was a relaxing day, there was nothing to do and nowhere to be so it was amazing to take all of Nicaragua’s features on the Pacific ocean. After a big breakfast we all went to the beach and rode the waves and snorkeled, it was a great kickstart to the day. When we went home we all made ourselves lunch with all of the great food that is at the house. For the rest of the day we all did our own things. For dinner we all pitched in and made a huge meal of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and salad. As the day was winding down the group decided to take a walk down to the beach at dark zero-thirty. As we jumped in the water we realized that the water surrounding us was bio-luminescent. Every stroke was illuminated with a glowing splash of water, and as you looked out over the ocean you could see huge lightning storms out at see. and as if that wasn’t the best swim i have ever taken in my life, you look up and you can see the Milky-way and all of the millions of stars shining down on you.

And of course, here are some pictures from my phone:

So much chill right here. 

The sunsets here are a spectacle.

Sorry for the inconsistent posting times!  The wireless at the beach house is spotty.  And also, this is what we're dealing with.
