First we went for a hike up a very very steep hill. I use the term hike, but it was nothing like I've done in the States. Walking straight uphill, on what is supposed to be a road, not so much with the well-walked path. It was also almost 90 today. So while I was trying to push through the walk, I almost passed out and ended up riding horseback the rest of the way up the hill to the clearing. That was not the refreshing part...
But the view was worth it.
We walked back down the mountain and were greeted by a PUPPY. My stomach wasn't feeling too hot, so I held her for quite a while, while everyone else at dinner. Many puppy kisses. So much fluff.
After dinner time, one of the farm owners started talking to us about how he rides the buffalo we greeted when we arrived. Then asked if we wanted to ride it.
We did. This is Muñeco. I decided we were friends because my Tica mom has taken to calling me Muñeca (doll) recently. There were two other buffalos on the farm as well. One of them was very vocal, especially when asked "¿que pasó?"
Being around animals was so refreshing for my soul. It was a much needed battery recharge after the past few weeks. Time to keep going and keep learning.
PuraVida.
