(Saturday, June 4, Day 348)

Phrase of the day: Estas seguro quieres luchar... Are you sure you want to wrestle?

Bad idea.

Mitch, a volunteer who works in the south, came to visit for the weekend. It was interesting to show him the town and what San Isidro has to offer. Thankfully, a decent amount.

We walked around town, ate lots of snacks, and decided to take a trip to the beach with the kids.

We went to the park and hired a car. After an hour or so, we were there. Matal, a nice small beach north of Bahia.
Tourists hadly ever go there, or even know about it, so it's much better for us. It feels safe like being in town.

The kids built mermaids(?)...
Which turned into wrestling somehow!
Jimmy, one of the eldest kids always wants to wrestle me for some reason. We were at the beach, so I said 'yes' for once.
He was strong... but, well, you know how it goes!
We ended with a nap in our hammocks and cold coconut juice.
Not a bad day.
