And the winner is….

The Camino contest winner is ….. Fred Fitzer! Congratulations father you’ve won! Hmm… This may sound a little shady…. You’ll receive your prize when your picking us up from the airport. Again, sounds shady but Mona tabulated the results. Marsha Watkins was in a close second, you will also be receiving a prize!  

We had a wonderful relaxing day today. We went for a walk and visited an awesome market and watched the hazy clouds burn off revealing a beautiful blue ocean. We divided and conquered, I opted for hammock time at the resort and Mona continued along the beach where she hopped into a public yoga class. She snapped the epic features photo before she jumped in. We met at the spa at 5:00. I had a punishing Thai massage and she had an equally punishing manicure / pedicure.   
Mona found the perfect mom and pop restaurant for dinner. Complete with hand lettered sign and plastic table cloths. No English here, so ordering was rough. I communicated chicken, clams and calamari with my best (terrible) Spanish. The cook / waitress confirmed our chicken (polo) order with the universal arm wave and about one minute of rapid fire Spanish we didn’t understand. We answered with muy bien and a smile. We had fried calamari, roasted razor clams, and a perfectly grilled spatchcocked chicken served with butter lettuce, raw onion, tomato and course salt. It was the best meal I’ve had on this adventure. It was a great day!

  4. Keep in mind that I am not “tech savvy” at all :)….isn’t there an app that you can speak what you wish to communicate that will translate into any given language?

    1. They exist but but require an internet connection. I have an offline translator but it’s slow to type and pass the phone. Being good at charades is a definite bonus here!
