mountain climbing…dragon fruit…grocery shopping-which means hiking with lots of supplies…

thursday.  june 18.  2015

the kayak guy, is also the mountain climbing guy.  he gave us a deal for both families to come mountain climb, and pay him to make lunch if we wanted…yes please!  it was 200q per family-$26 to hike with a guide and mountain climb.  then $4/per person for lunch.  best money i’ve spent.  it was quite the hike i must say-but we made it.  the kids did great climbing the mountain-alex’s stress fracture is hurting, so she didn’t climb.  we had to leave before the price’s were done, because it was almost 2:00-and we had to get to pana to grocery shop.  we hiked down the 30 minutes, said good bye to Lee, the owner, and ran to the dock just as a boat was passing.  they swerved and picked us up-so lucky!

made it to pana, walked 20 minutes, ate dinner, walked 10 more minutes, got some groceries, went to another grocery store, and we all carried groceries the 20 minutes back to the dock.  rode the 20 minute boat ride home, and hiked through the village and up our mountain with all the groceries.  alex was amazing-had a box of heavy stuff she carried on her head and shoulders the whole way.

we put stuff away, cleaned up, did math, showered, and wound down watching a movie.  it’s no wonder when 8:00 pm rolls around, we are exhausted.  it was a great day.
