San Quintin Day 2

On Sunday, July 26 we woke up refreshed and ready for orientation. Gord warned us about all the dangerous spiders and scorpions as well as filling us in on the events for the week. Mid morning we took a ride to the beach and had a hot dog BBQ lunch. Needless to say our team really enjoyed cooking and eating hotdogs! The water was quite cold and although the sun was quite hot it was windy. Thankfully we brought 60spf sunscreen to prevent any burns. After lunch we headed back to the campground where we were staying in tents. Half the campground is reserved for teams like ours while the other half is run as a campground and swimming pool for locals. The pool looked very inviting but we didn't have time for swimming.

Today's picture is of the church we went to after supper. They normally have headphones for English speakers but someone had stolen them all so they had a translator on stage, which was fortunate for us. After the church service we went to a local ice cream parlour and enjoyed some authentic American ice cream :).
