What a great life! From school to the beach. The next day; more of the same. I must go back soon. Travel tip: if you get too much sun, find an aloe plant (they grow all over in the lush landscape), break open the tip of a 'leaf' and smear the clear "goo" from inside straight on the sunburn. This will soothe it immediately. Also, if you plan to surf, wear water shoes for protection against sea urchins! If you step on one, you must soak your foot in urine to treat.
