Thursday - Alessia, Riley and Hanae

Today we had planned to go snorkeling but due to weather conditions, we ended up surfing again. It turned out to be one of the best surf days that we've had so far this week and we hope for even better tomorrow. Everyone improved their technique and endurance, catching green waves and riding them to the beach (with some great wipeouts). We surfed for two and a half hours, ending with a short yoga cool-down.

In the afternoon, we had a lot of downtime where we played lots of different card games, read by the beach and ate lots of snacks. In the evening, we were supposed to play with local school kids on the beach but heavy winds picked up so they weren't able to make it :( (hopefully we can meet them tomorrow afternoon). Instead, we looked through the close-up photos of us surfing and falling from the last couple of days.

We ended the night with a great dinner, lots of mosquito bites and battle scars.
