Wednesday

Wednesday we had a free morning, so most of us slept in. Lunch was at Entre Masas, an emanada place. The empanadas were good, but there was just a little too much cheese – it was overwhelming! The afternoon was spent down at the beach playing games. Mimo came to say goodbye since he had to go to New York for a wedding; it was really sad to see him go, but we took a requisite “Mimo face” picture before he escaped. The beach games were fun – the basic sack race and some tug-of-war were my favorites (partially because my team won – yay Team Mimo!). After the games a group of us hit around of volleyball, and then just hung around for a little while before heading back to the hotel (with sand in our shoes, of course). That night we had one last salsa class to polish our moves – it was fun, but a few of us were disappointed since it was supposed to be a reggaeton class (though I’m still skeptical of how you can really teach reggaeton). That night not many people wanted to go out so it was only a small group of us that ended up going back to Café Journal. It was a lot of fun, and we ended up running into this Alaskan kid we had met earlier that day.
