beach days

I've now spent the past two weekends at the beach, both times getting sunburnt (sorry mom).  Thankfully, only one side of me got burnt each weekend, so I'm now fairly evenly crispy, still white with blotches of red turning tan.  HOT.

First weekend our friend Maji invited us to her family's beach house.  Talk about getting spoiled.  Eight friends, sun, waves and Catchphrase.  Couldn't have asked for a better day.

The following weekend, I headed with Joe, Andrea and her sister Whitney to Gigante beach for another day in the sun. Unfortunately it was a little too much sun, because despite lathering on sunscreen and only staying out a couple hours, the back of my legs are now red and incredibly sensitive.  In fact, I spent most of the next day putting on lotion and holding still.  Even broke down and turned on the air conditioning for a bit.

Didn't actually take pictures at Gigante that day, but here are a couple photos from Joe's previous trip.


It's my last week in Nicaragua and I can't believe 6 months is nearly up!  I hate to leave, but at the same time, it's time to get back to reality.  And give my poor burnt skin a rest.  One more trip planned for this coming weekend before heading back to Dallas: Ometepe here I come!
