Today was a rest & recovery day. After 2 days of playing at the beach, hiking & caving, we all needed a day off as tourists & time to just spend at home, relax, do school work, exercise & think about doing our first load of laundry! Cannon has mentioned his lack of legos & friends here on the trip so today he & Paul took time together to watch a Star Wars movie, "The Empire Strikes Back." This of course was after Cannon read from his book! Stacia & Sydney did make it to a nearby beach to enjoy a couple hours there. The rest of us just stayed at the beach house, "Casa Nirvana."

We don't have a washing machine. We did find a nice lady in town that would do our laundry but Stacia decided to buy detergent & do it ourselves! Paul washed out two trash cans, now our soapy water & rinse water. We are limited with our amount of drying space since the special stretchy clothes line that Staica bought only provides 5 feet. We need about 50 feet of linear space!

Sounds like a nice day to recharge......except for the clothes washing! But that can be fun too :)
