We slept in a bit this morning, all the way to about 7:30. Once we were up, we went down to the beach and rented some paddleboards. The thing about paddleboarding is, it's not hard to stand up, its hard to stay standing!
We only thought we'd be out there for an hour or two, but we were having SO MUCH FUN, we stayed out as long as we could... 5 hr's straight! What a blast. It took us a while to get the hang of it, but once we did we even caught a few party waves.
We were all so sore after, not just from whole-body muscle, but from the multiple falls into the shallow coral just below the surface! Sore muscles, bruised heal, and a few cuts,,, not too bad for a day of fun on some big boards, and little waves.
After we returned the boards we headed back, got cleaned up and headed out for some dinner. After walking around town, we ended up walkin into the Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. for dinner. We got to sit right on the edge of the little patio which was just on the edge of the ocean and watch the sun go down as we ordered... how romantic for 4 guys :) Whatever,,, our waitress was cute, so it all worked! We asked her for a cool hike, that was somewhere the other tourists wouldn't find, and also wouldn't get our butts kicked by some locals. She told us about one, we paid (gave her a nice tip), and headed home and to bed.
