Our plan was to wake up pretty early today and head back to Cocobana for some delicious vegan food again BUT

First of all, we all slept like crap. Turns out John is a snorer. And he snored. All. Night. Long. Not only did he snore, it was sooooooo LOUD. It was bad and noone slept well.

So we didn’t wake up early, we slept in late. THEN Cocobana was closed. We thought it was closed because it was Sunday. Turns out they’re closed because it’s Father’s Day and what is a more casual holiday State side, Puerto Rico takes it more with love. Pretty much EVERYTHING was closed today.

We walked until we could find anything open and ended up at a lovely little restaurant where I had some delicious guava and cheese. It was pretty dang good! So was my caprese sandwich. We filled our bellies and headed to the beach!

We found a beautiful little spot just past some shady trees and enjoyed our afternoon. It was so nice! The water was just warm enough where it didn’t hurt too much to go in, the sand was warm and the sky was clear. It was great! Tons of people out wind surfing and flying kites because it was so windy.

After some swimming and relaxing, we headed back to the hostel to get our stuff. Max was coming to pick us up and take us back to base! Which was really nice.

We got back, changed, grabbed our bags, found Max and headed out! We had to stop and pick up one more person and then it was back to base.

Once we got there, Sam and Alan and to check in and get settled. I met up with Nora and Tom to chit chat. They were headed to a pig roast with Nico and Steve and asked if I wanted to tag along. I said yes and we headed out.

Turns out it was to the wrong party. Well, for what Tom and I thought. This party was people drinking beer, dancing on their driveway, and listening to music. Still fun, but not quite what we thought. Nora left to run to the store so Tom and I decided to head back and find Zoë.

Zoë knew where the actual pig roast was. Turns out it was at Danny’s house. Danny is our materials guy and the guy who helped me inventory the tool room. A group of us walked over to his house, literally the opposite direction of the other party. Arriving there we found his family and loads of volunteers.

Sam and Alan had joined us too! It was a nice night. We were fed some delicious food, sat around in chairs and hammocks, and just talked. Hung out. It was a great way to end a Sunday.
