After our initial beach trip we were ready for some more and the school was nice enough to provide a 3 day weekend at the end of our first month teaching. The fun part of being a part of an international teaching community is that the other teachers are an incredible resource when it comes to knowing places to go. After asking around and hearing the name Siete Mares a few times we figured "Done- lets go."
What a treat- After a drive to and along the coast we swung into the mountains and then down a small canyon to the beach. The cabins all have hammocks and the beers are included- Innes was muy contento. We also had the bonus of going with our downstair neighbors Diane and Shane and their two boys Ryan and Justin- so good to get to know more good people from the Caracas hood.

Lisa thought I really really liked the hammock as I stayed in this one for hours at a time- truth is- I couldn't get out and was too embarrassed to say so

That's a papaya tree (or "lechoza"/"lechosa" as they say here)!
