Sunday & Monday I woke up really early Sunday and went for a walk on the beach on my own when I came across a hammock so I lay reading my book before falling back to asleep. It was more comfortable outdoors being breezy and cooler than the room. I woke up to Lauren tapping me and standing over me looking very angry. Her flip flop still hadn't come back to shore which meant it was long gone, and she'd broken her sunglasses she'd just bought. We went and got b...

Saturday I woke up fairly early due to the heat and was annoyed to see my big bottle of water from the night before had a little hole in it and so had leaked all over my stuff on the floor. After hanging it all up, we went for our free breakfast fried eggs on toast - the best I've had yet as they were well seasoned and so tasty compared to what you normally get! We chilled most of the morning and then met up with the others to sort out the boat trip. Unfortunat...

Friday I hadn't had another great sleep as I'd been up in the night with a bad stomach (this tends to happen I've noticed when I over-eat!) and I was trying to sleep in the room without the fan on to help my throat which meant I was tossing and turning with the heat.

Not long after, Adam came and joined us who had had yet another late night so was feelin...

Monday & Tuesday In the morning we checked out and went back near the beach for some breakfast before our expected 10am pickup. The bus was 40 minutes late and it took about 3.5 hours rather than the 2.5 it was supposed to. The driver was very relaxed and was stopping off to pick up and drop off things for his mates as well as getting a drink and his lunch and whatever else he kept randomly stopping for. We had comfortable seats on the mini bus though so it ...
