Secret Beach

Mark had his second test on Monday so he had the day of yesterday! I had to get him outside since he has been here for a little of two months and has not yet gone to the beach!! (Don't ask me, I have no idea why he didn't go!) Either way we ended up lounging around in the morning then met up with Emily and Dave to go to secret beach. You can only get to this beach via the water, it is at the bottom of a some cliffs. This beach is not too far away from the beach right by campus. Originally we were going to kayak there but they only had 2 left to rent for the day, so we ended up having a local bring us our in his motor boat. ( sidenote:When you are on the boat you can see mountains in the distance, they were too far to really take a picture but it is Guaduloupe and Les Saintes... can't wait to visit!) It was only the four of us on the beach for most of the 3 hours we stayed. We packed a lunch and stayed in the water most of the day. It is so clear, you can see your toes. Emily and I went into a cave that formed in the rocks, it was fun until we saw bats flying around. I don't think I have ever moved so fast! After the beach we went to dinner with a few of his classmates and it was served on a banana leaf, it was yummy! It was a wonderful day off!!
