Swimming in the ocean

Playa Giante

So I've been here two days.  This is crazy.  I had a pretty early night for my first evening but I feel that it was pretty fair given the way the plane trip went.  I was woken up nice and early this morning (3 am) by a rooster that never got the memo about waiting for the sun. But apparently this is just how the rooster rolls so I think I'll probably get used to it. After ignoring the rooster for a few hours I got up to enjoy my first day here. We walked down the beach and had breakfast at a surf lodge. It was delicious and only cost $15... For 4 of us haha. Came back and went for a swim in the waves which is always a blast. I spent the day millin about the house and swimming. I'm still not quite 100% health wise but hopefully that will get better. I Took some photos to show where I'm living and some of the other inhabitants around the place.

    The place we're living has it's own pack of dogs which aren't trained but are the greatest dogs.  I think since they are a pack the younger dogs learn from the older dogs.  The boss dog is named Steech and according some our neighbors he is the boss all around town.  Whenever I go for a walk, at least one dog comes with me as an escort.  Apparently they even stay and watch your stuff on the beach when you swim.  Pretty cool.  One of the dogs recently had 7 Puppies ( 6 boys and 1 girl ) and I may or may not have woken them from their siesta.  I kinda feel bad because their mom was sleeping but once her pups were up they realized that they were hungry, ah well made for some good classic puppy photos.

  Tried to get a good sleep but still feeling kinda crappy so i was sorta up throughout the night.  The dogs went crazy when a horse tried to come onto the property.  They chased the horses off the property, but not before waking up every person asleep within our area.  Got up pretty early this morning, still not feeling 100% but better than yesterday.  We went up to the property and did some work until 11. Came back and swam for a while and helped my cousin design some things.  Came on the computer and decided to figure out how to get a photo album together so that people could see.  And that's my day so far and it's currently 3:14 pm.  I like it. haha anyways, I think that's good for today.  I'll try and write another blurb in a couple days.  Unless I do something really cool.
