Rain and dolphin spotting

The night was noisy and chilly - no blankets on the beds, only a thin sheet, and its surprisingly cool here. Glad we are moving!

After a good buffet breakfast of fruits and croissants we moved to Hotel Tabuba ($40) which is a far nicer room and has a sea view. The roar of the waves crashing against the sea wall below the window is awesome!

It has been drizzling ever since we arrived and we're not used to this wet stuff! It cleared up slightly at lunch and we went out for pizza bread ($5) and frozen yogurt, then walked along the beach to the northern end. We watched the surfers for a while - it seems a much better surf spot than Mancora which was concentrated in one place so got crowded, whereas the break here extends all the way along the long beach.

I spent the afternoon sat by our hotel room window, which opens fully, reading, watching the surfers and looking for whales with Anna's cheap binoculars. No luck with the whales but we did see a pod of dolphins swim in front of us very close to the shore who did some leaps and surfed the waves a little.

I was too full for dinner but Anna went out to get a huge takeaway burger from last night's place and I stole most of her chips. We had a night of English tv on the huge screen in our room.もっと詳しく
