Sunday Sept 13- Vacation in Tela

Today was our first full day in Tela. We needed to get money desperately so we ventured into town to find a bank and explore the stores there. While we were in the store, we decided to buy this sticker of Tinky Winky to represent Jacki being there with us (she was still back in Gracias showing her boyfriend the town). So everywhere we went we took pictures with Tinky Winky: on the beach, at lunch, etc. After that Kirsty, Julia and I went to the beach later in the afternoon and it was really hot. The ocean wasn’t much cooler, but it was still refreshing to be able to swim. We met a few girls from La Union who were staying in Tela that weekend as well, Renska (from the Netherlands) and Laura (from Scotland). They work at the Vida Abundante in La Union. We went on the beach at sunset with everyone; it was gorgeous. Renska, Kirsty and I went up in this lifeguard shack for a while to see the view of the beach better, too. Then we finally decided to get some dinner around 8 at this place that has good seafood. I had fish…literally a whole fish was given to me and I had to pull the skeleton out and some bones too as I ate it. But it was really good fish otherwise! It was a great relaxing day.
