Get your own

We finaly got to Mancora and didn´t waste time getting to the cevicheria to get a large plate of ceviche and eight large beers between the four of us. Oh, yea... Denise (mike´s other half at the time) decided to come along for the beach and then had to go back down to Arequipa where she is from but not until we all left. So then off to the beach where we spent the rest of our first day and most of the others.

Life for us in Mancora consisted of one or more of the following every day: Wake up(whenever that may be), go to the market for some fruit for breakfast and some other things for later, go to the bakery for dounuts or empanadas, go back to the hostel, get in the water for a long time and then lay out(repeat as needed), watch the sunset, party or just chill and drink matte(a traditional argentinian tea in which everyone shares a common cup as a social thing), sleep. Like always we quickly made friends and what characters they were.

We went to a full moon party down the beach on thursday that week and I stayed out until 10:30 in the morning at which point I would have rather died than felt the hangover I felt. Especialy because it was my second hard party day in a row. Well after a week there and the ever closing date of christmas we decided to leave and get on our way to Quito, Ecuador on the 13th.
