Day 29 (July 30th)

Not the usual morning routine. I’m trying to keep you on your toes. This morning i didn’t get up until 9:30AM ish. When I did get up, I packed my stuff for the cabin and then us and Gilberte’s family had a family breakfast of tomato omelette, bread and cheese and fruit. After breakfast we finished getting ready to go, said goodbye to Gilberte’s family (who were all really nice) and then headed to the cabin. The traffic was pretty bad so it took us about 2 hours to get there but we did stop at a roadside market (kind of like sliver rill) and got fruits and vegetables and cookies. When we got to the cabin, me and Nat needed a moment to get over how cute it was. 


Apparently they were on a TV show awhile ago called chic shack where they redo your cabin/chalet whatever so it’s very nicely decorated. After we unloaded the car me and Nat went on a paddle boat ride and toured the area. The lake that the cabin is on is quite small so it didn’t take us long. There were tones of frogs though! We were actually afraid they might jump into the boat but they didn’t. After our boat ride we had dinner corn on the cob from the maker and then i read my book in the hammock that had a view of the lake (rough life. I know). I finished my book so I relaxed in the hammock and listened to music until I had an unintentional nap. When i woke up again, we had a snack of fizzy lemonade and salt and vinaigre chips and sat in the sunshine. For dinner we had salmon, rice and green beans. After dinner we started a fire in the fire pit and sat around the fire talking and laughing and occasionally singing or making fun of the music coming from other cabins. We sat around the fire until after it was dark and looked at the stars drank tea. We even saw a shooting star. Also the bull frogs were making a lot of noise. When we finally went inside, we proudly partook in some pecan pie, did the dishes and then brushed our teeth and went to bed. Today was a very relaxed kinda day which was really nice. Even the weather was perfect, sunny but not hot and it cooled down in the evening giving me a reason to wear my new sweater!
