March 30th, We walked so much

I was up at 7 this morning, got dressed and went looking for Monse. Although she was not in front of the camp, I did get to experience some joking about my lack of Spanish. I found Monse back in her house. We went with Kilo (short for Kilometers) to the dock where his boat was, rowed across the river to another beach, walked another mile to the main beach, and then walked about 7 miles of beach to the next town. It was important to walk so that if there were any turtle nests, we would be able to see them. It was very long and very hot. We got to the town and walked for almost another mile to a hotel with a restaurant under a cool over hang. Kilo still had another 3 kilometers to walk and back until he reached his destination but that he would return in about 2 hours for us. He joked and said we would never walk with him again (Monse and I look pretty pathetic after the first 3 hours of walking.) Anywho, while he walked, Monse and I ate eggs and she helped me with my Spanish.
After about 2 hours, Kilo returned and we were off! We walked through town, and then back on to the beach for another 2 hours or so. It felt like much longer than that regardless. When we returned back to the house, Monse and I showered and decided to go into town to get pizza. THEN THE CRAZIEST THING HAPPENED. The entire town lost power. COMPLETE DARKNESS. We kept walking though because we were not about to let a power outage get in the way of us eating food. We found a place that would serve us and we got pizza. The sky was absolutely gorgeous so that alone made us want to stay outside. The town was so united. It was funny..the power came on for about a 30 seconds and everyone started cheering and laughing, but it went back off and everyone shouted together. It was great haha. After we ate, we went back to the house and while Monse passed out in her house, I stayed up to work. I went into the bathroom and decided I needed to shake my sandy towel outside. SO I go outside. and then shut the door. I shake the towel out and when I´m all ready to go back inside, I realize, ¨Oh..I can´t do that. My door locks behind me when I close it..there is no handle. Awesome!¨. So I´m stuck outside. I go to Monse´s cabin and she gets up reluctantly and lets me in. SHe´s half asleep as I´m explaining the mess I´ve gotten myself into and she says I can just stay in there. I do go over to the main house to see if Fernando is there but no...he´s not there..and the house is locked. So i passed out in Monse´s bed waiting for Fernando to get home.
I am writing though. which means I got my lap top and work back after a while. I know I won´t be doing that again. So, almighty God, thanks a million for that lesson haha.
