One Week Already

So the Navy Seal Training is completely insane. We went the past two nights and both feel like we are going to die. Our trainer, Phillip, says we won't be sore after about two weeks. In the meantime we are going through Aleve like it's water. We took "before" photos, so hopefully when we take "after" photos we will see that is was worth it. No, I am not going to post the "before" photos. I would like you to keep visiting the blog.

I ventured out on my bike for a couple of hours this morning. The drivers here are mad men, but they really seem to respect people on bikes, so it's not too scary. I am actually more scared in a car than on my bike. I still can't get used to driving on the other side. At least our steering wheel is on the same side. It's only like that in some cars.

I actually went out to look for some beach towels. I didn't find any because they were all such cheap quality. If only I could repack my suitcase! I would have left home my long sleeved sweaters and thrown in beach towels! It's just hard to shop here. I don't know where to go. Some hardware stores have pots and pans and bicycles. So do some of the clothing stores. But I can't find a Walmart type store anywhere. I guess it gives me something to do during the day.

I took some photos of our home, some flowers in our yard, and some geckos. I also tried to shoot a video of the chickens. I will put it on here if I can figure it out.
