Sad day. This was my last day here at the Blake Wilderness Resort but man let me tell you, it was definitely the best :) To start off, there was pancakes for breakfast, sweet sweet pancakes. Then right after breakfast we took a boat to the closest town to go horseback riding!!! It was soooooooo much fun! By far one of the best things I have done in my life is going on a horseback ride through the tropical jungle. I really dont know what to say other than if I had the opportunity, I would do this every single day of my life. My horse was a great horse too, though I didnt catch its name. In fact they wouldnt tell us the horses names they would just say, "Its whatever you want it to be." Which to me makes it sound like they were hookers but maybe thats just because I live in Nevada. Mi caballo was very good tempered and rode really well. I kindof fell in love with him and wanted to keep him.

We went on a nice ride through town then headed on a road for a while. We ended up in a really nice river where we went swimming, which was much appreciated because I had no idea riding a horse can get you so sweaty.

On our way back one of the horses was having a hard time because his feet were hurting, I guess the owners have so many horses they cant afford to put shoes on them all. It was the horse Katie was on and we felt so bad for the poor thing so we got the information about how much it costs to get four horseshoes, which is only about $15, and we decided that when we get into the big town, we are going to buy some shoes and have our guide take the shoes and make sure they get put on those horses. At the end of our ride, we got to take the horses to the beach and ride them really hard in the sand and holy cow it was just so much fun!!! However, one of my stirrups decided to break completely off right in the middle of a full on run and I came so close to biffing it but I held on like a freaking boss and crossed the finish line like Viggo and Hidalgo. After the horse ride we had a BBQ lunch and had some fun with my underwater camera.

Then we headed to another beach and Tico showed me around the tide pools and I collected some amazing pieces of coral and shells and all manner of ocean fun. We caught a lot of crabs, saw macaws and Costa Rican racoons, and learned about different shell fish in the pools. I tried some termites, which are everywhere here, and they taste just like minty sagebrush, its the weirdest thing.

Dinner later and I am assuming a lot of dancing will take place. I am still not very good at it but I am getting better with practice. Until next time!
