About 2 weeks ago, on the first weekend that we were here, a big storm blew. There was some rain, but mostly, it was wind. The temperature dropped to about 75 degrees, and we were all freezing! It is amazing how fast you adjust to the temperature.

On Sunday, we went to church in the morning. The VanZees, the people that we are staying with, go to church at a kids church in Sandy Bay. The most exciting part is that it is all in Spanish! I understood parts of it, but not the whole thing! After the service, which was not very long, we did a craft, before serving lunch that the VanZees made.

After church, we went to West Bay, the nicest beach on the island. We ate lunch at Totally Taco, Nic VanZee’s restaurant. The food was delicious! Then, we went to the beach. Because of the storm, there were giant waves, but we braved the waters. At first, it was really scary, but the VanZees knew what they were doing, and helped us calm down. Once we got used to the waves, it was really fun!
