yesterday, when we got to the hostel we were about 2 of 4 occupants staying here. there seems to have been a mass migration of brazillians to this hostel, because this morning we found it crawling with people. it turns out the next couple of days are a national holiday in brazil. in our room are now two germans.
today has been a bit rainy. this morning we made a mini hike to the top of a precariously windy hill overlooking the ocean. for some reason, it was ridiculously tiring.
afterwards, the tide came up - as our hostel is right on the beach, this posed a problem. in low tide you can walk on the beach right to the front of the hostel. during high tide, you are wading through water. unfortunately, we encountered the latter and our feet were soaked. i hung my socks out to dry, however unfortunately it started pouring!!!
the afternoon was filled with playing foosball, multiple card games, and the like. in the rain, it is hard to do much on the island except for what the hostel offers. the brazillians seemed to take a keen interest in the fact that kavitha and i were canadian and resembled indians and chinese people. sometimes, it feels like the equivalent of being a sideshow attraction!
