The Beach!!

I was so stoked to go to the beach! I love the beach and I haven't been in over a year so when I saw it I was in a happy place. Max, Linda and I went swimming in the ocean but it was so different from the Oregon coast. It was warm for one thing but it never got deep. We walked nearly 1km out and it was still not quite waist deep. It was fun to splash around and enjoy the water up until I was stung by a sea anemone six times. That was interesting. Check out my foot below. And then there was the adventure on the camel. After bartering from 250 shillings each person to 200 shillings for both Max and myself, we hiked on up. Of course trying to get on the camel in a dress was an adventure in itself. The exciting five minute camel ride 100 meters down the beach and back was great but getting off was even more fun. The guy said to lean back but he didn't emphasize the serious need to lean back. So the camel went down on its knees and I nearly went over the top of his head! Everyone thought that was quite hilarious but I can't say that I felt the same way until quite awhile later. The coast was great though and definately worth the experience...
