So, we went white water rafting yesterday. It was fun. We saw 3 toucans... mostly the small ones but it was cool. On the trip is was just the two of us and two guides. One guide spoke perfect english and was from costa rica. The other, Octavian who controled our boat, could only say "Forwards," "Backwards," "Right," "Left," "Lets Go!," "Get Down" and "High Five" -which he always did by putting his paddle in the air for us to hit... its really more of a high paddle, but who am i to judge. I plan to write a song in which the only lyrics will be his english vocabulary. It was kind of funny becuse he was a Quebecer....
no.... not one of those bagel baking, tortierre eatin people from canada, but there is actually a native group here called Quebecers. He was really excited when he found out we were canadian, but then not as much when we said we weren't from quebec.
it didn't matter.... he didnt speak french anyways...
.this is a waterfall we stopped and hiked to/swam in... it was beautiful... like everything else in this stupid country...
only 8 days till europe
love
