Little Bit of Everything

My lip is healing slowly but surely! I don’t like to talk much cause every time I move my mouth it hurts and I feel like Im ripping off the scap. It also looks nasty when I open my mouth :P

In other island news, last night I got off of work early and Ty, Amber and I met up with some of Ty’s friends to head to the north side of the island (We live on the east end). It was an adventure on steep windy roads to get to Hull bay. We listened to music, drank cheap beer and Ty and I also were able to take a walk along the beach.

The music was pretty good actually. Sax, piano and some clarinet to dance to. I love how the locals here love to just have a good time listening to music and drinking. Its entertaining. 


Today was my first day off since last weekend! So I woke up this morning, Amber and I went into Red Hook to take care of some things (poop…) and then I got dropped off at the national park dock so I could do some yoga while looking out at the bay. It was a beautiful morning, not too hot, not super windy. It was nice to spend some time on my own working out. Ive been doing really well at my yoga practice. I can do mermaid on one side now!!


Also, good news, Ty and I get to house sit for one of his friends this week! This means I can cook healthy food, do laundry and sleep in a bed that doesn't move! Woohoo! It really is the little things in life. 

 Loving work, not hating the boat, enjoying being on the island with Ty and Amber and its awesome not being cold :)

Runners High

At 12:30pm, I stepped outside for the first time all day. I hadn't really even left my room until I realized that if I didnt go outside, I probably would bum it all afternoon. I put my running shoes on and bounced outside. I started walking and after I got myself settled, I started to run. After being cooped up, those first few steps of an outdoor run is so magical. The feeling of freedom, fresh air and adrenaline is fantastic. I always have a mad smile and excitement for being able to move so fast. After my first few minutes of running, thats when the exhaustion sets in. What keeps me going longer, is adventure. Do I like running? Not really. Do I enjoy exploring? Obviously. I decided to check out a new part of the power line trail that I have not seen before and ran up the hills, or on straight path, and walked down hills. I went to the beginning of the trail and back again, smiling at the other people who were also out for their afternoon walk/bike. The sun came out and it...

Giant Galapagos Tortoises

Because we practically didn't sleep for two days in a row, we slept in and had a slow morning. Well, other people slept in. I was wide awake at 7:15 am and was too excited to lay in bed till 8. So I got up and did yoga on our second story patio. The sun, which was struggling to come out behind some wispy clouds, felt amazing on my skin and the warm air was exactly what I had needed that morning. I got my heart pumping a bit and then jumped on the bed to wake Ty up. "We're in the Galapagos! Get up, get up, get up!" We were waiting for our travel companions to join us for breakfast and a morning exploring the Charles Darwin Research Center, but they never came so we went off to get some of the "best coffee in the Galapagos" and slowly meander through the Research Station, hoping they would join later. Little did we know, Jake was passed out until 11am! He was sick though and needed it to feel healthy for the rest of the trip! We took our time reading the s...

A Trashy Morning

Wednesday morning I organized a beach clean-up. I had been wanting to clean up the beach that I walk past every day to work for 5 months. A beach that is absolutely TRASHED. So I posted on Facebook and asked a few friends if they could spare the time to help. I figured that I would be out there by myself but I had two other people help me! Someone from Facebook who read my post and decided to join and my roomie Scott. We started bright and early at 9am, it was cloudy but still pretty humid. We started with some kitchen bags from my house. We filled up four of then pretty quick and then on the walk to the dumpster, filled up a few small plastic bags. When Scott showed up he tackled a small section that was trashed with soda and water bottles. I was going to leave that section alone as it was in the trees a bit but he cleared it out making it look so nice! I wish I had taken a before and after picture. Once we filled up all the bags I had brought, we decided to grab a few more from t...
