I'm living the life.

I've been in Puerto Escondido for the last two days. It's this touristy beachy surfing town that I'm enjoying quite a bit. This morning I slept in after a night of gecko-induced terror. I know, they're harmless, but seeing one run all around the ceeling of my room while I'm trying to go to sleep turned me into a crazy person. I couldn't handle it.

Entonces, earlier today I was lying by the pool, shaded by this huge mango tree, and I was looking up at the leaves and the mangoes, and thinking about Janie under the pear tree in There Eyes Were Watching God (maybe the best book ever?) and generally enjoying life. It was a good moment. Later I went to the beach and watched huge waves crash for a while. It was hot, and I actually went in the water. Like, all the way. So deep I couldn´t touch the bottom.. It was crazy! I didn´t even think about jaws or kraken that much. It was actually really fun being tossed around like a beach ball at a Dave Matthews Band concert. The water was super warm. If you were going to be jealous of me, now is the time.

Ok, enough with the weird bragging. I need to study the espanol. The real adventure will start soon I promise.

ps. I just found out that you can get Jaws 3 in 3D. Jaws 3 party at my house when I get back!
