Day 42, Week 6



Saturday, October 2

On Saturday we woke up somewhat early to head north about 1 hour to Barra de Navidad and Melaque. They are two beaches that are in the same bay, but completely different looking. We spent the early morning/afternoon at Barra de Navidad and it was so beautiful and such hot weather. The waves were not that good for our friends to go skim boarding, but we were able to swim and ride the waves there. I got pretty beat up by the waves and drank a lot of salt water. yuck! haha We bought fresh mangos on a stick but a mid-afternoon lunch and it was the juiciest piece of fruit I think I've ever eaten. It was so delicious! After a couple hours there, we had lunch and got out of the sun for a while. We walked around the center and some of the stores and then drove to the other side of the bay to Melaque. This beach was a lot bigger and the waves were way crazier and better for the guys to skim board. I needed to stay out of the water and the sun, so I took a little nap under the umbrellas. :)We were on the beach until it got dark and we actually got to the see on of the best skimboarders in Mexico at that beach. That was pretty cool to watch! After the beach, we washed off at one our the guys' beach house and went out for dinner in the center plaza. It was very much a small hick town, because everyone sat in the back of their drunks drinking beer and driving around the one block of the plaza playing their loud music! We had a fun night and I was so tired I had to go to bed shortly after we got back!
