Paradise is-

-not so nice right now. Thanks to some less than agile waterfall climbing and tidepool hopping, i now have some bruised ribs and a bruised foot. They are slowly improving, but no surfing and no yoga for pretty much the last week. For a few days all I could do was lay on the yoga deck and read. This might not sound so bad, but it was actually a little painful because my book was funny and everytime I laughed, it hurt. At night, I tried to read with my headlamp under my mosquito net. This is a bad idea because all the bugs are swarm to my light and frantically try to get through the net. So I spent most of the time flicking bugs off the net so they wouldn't crawl in through the two holes that are right above my head. Then I just gave up and went to sleep. Now my foot is feeling better, so I can walk down to the beach and read under the palms. This might not sound so bad either, except that the waves have been the best I´ve seen since I´ve been here. And I just have to sit and watch. But, there have been a few sharks hanging out around the waves the last few days, so the beach might not be that bad of a place to be.
