These are a few of..

My favorite things:
Manta rays
Nightswimming
Dancing in the moonlight

The scariest thing:
Getting woken by a monster truck driving in circles between my kayak and tent.

The hardest thing:
My second day I was blinded by the glare, even with sunglasses and a
hat. I then constructed side blinders for my glasses and also had a
bandana under the hat. In hindsight, the main cause of the pain could
have been sunblock sweat dripping into my eyes.

La Paz

I made it! woo-hoo! I'm looking forward to a shower and fish tacos and
sleeping in a bed. I'm a little overwhelmed by interaction with other
people, but look forward to it once I`m cleaned up and cooled down.
