Yesterday and today we went to manuel antonio national park. We camped about 10 feet from the ocean in tents. Despite the restless night with lots of humidity, rain, and creppy insects crawling all over my body, falling asleep to the sound of the ocean waves was amazing. The beach was absolutley beautiful. While swimming in the ocean, I found a kind of shell/seed looking thing, and afterward the lifeguard came up to me speaking spanish and telling me about how this thing I found (he called it a "nin-ee") would bring good luck to me, and if I searched the beach for another one, I wouldnt be able to find it becasue they are so rare. Everyone said he was just trying to flirt with me, but i think it will bring me luckk! This afternoon we had to survey 12 people (6 english speaking and 6 spanish speaking) I did not find the language barrier to be too difficult, I actually liked speaking spanish becasue I'm not forced to do it all the time. That is all for now, sorry for the short post, I am exhausted and tomorrow wil be a long day of studying for my exam on thursday. see you all soon, love you and miss you.
PS i tried uploading pics of the beach but the internet is entirley too slow, Ill try uploaading them later in the week
