Dec 8

And the recovery day. Basically woke up late, had some breakfast and then went straight to the beach. Some people were hurting and the guys were actually at the beach before us. We tanned for a bit and then got hungry and went to this awesome placed called Tacobar. You ordered like a taco, burrito, whatever…and then you added all these toppings to it. It was so good and on the side had a mango smoothie. I was in heaven. My stomach still wasn’t quite happy with me. I really wanted to go zip lining so Ali and Kyle and I went. Patrick and Austin were passed out all day and didn’t come out. So on the way to the place we picked up Blake and John and we got there and Bob and everyone else were there. . Our group got ready and got towed up the mountain. The view was absolutely gorgeous. The temperature was perfect too. The afternoon sun and the clouds were a great mix. We went down 14 different lines in all. Some were really fast and others were slow enough we could go upside down like a bat. So cool! It was really fun and I hope to do it again. After we played some baseball with the instructors they were so nice. Ali and I left earlier and the boys stayed longer to play a smaller game. Ali and I joined the nap party and we all slept in and didn’t go out until like 8 or 9. Found a place for dinner and got some chips and salsa, guacamole, and beans and then had some pizza. After we all kind of split up to go to different bars. At some point in the night we all met up with all the SASers in Jaco and had a good time. Eventually Sara and I got hungry so we went to the local store across the street and got a cup of noodles and some icecream. Called it a night around 2 am. It wasn’t a crazy night but it was a good one.
