Day three: after waking up to a sizzling, humid day, we geared up in our swimsuits, lathered up the sunscreen, and headed down to the beach for our long-awaited beach day.
Despite the dark clouds looming in the sky, it didn't keep us from having a blast swimming in the ocean, going for walks up and down the beach, and enjoying lively games of Frisbee and volleyball. Even when the clouds did decide to burst open into a downpour, we didn't stop, but rather, started up a rowdy, muddy game of beach volleyball with our team, our new Dominican friends, and even the odd stranger who wanted to jump in on the fun. After a full day of activity, we hopped back in our van and headed back home, where we cleaned up and then headed out once again to see a showing of the new Cinderella movie. All in all, it was a highly successful, relaxing day, which gave us a much-needed opportunity to rest our voices for our next few days of singing and performing. It was so cool to be able to experience the warmth of a beach in March, when we're so used to bleak cold at this time of year. It was a real blessing, and it really helped keep our spirits and our energy up.
