Day five

5/28/2015
         Today was rough. I woke up with a headache because I didn’t drink enough water. There was no drinkable water at the hotel. After I ate, I felt a little better until 10:30 when I felt dizzy and nauseous. I was relieved that we were only doing a half day of work.
         I had to mix concrete by shovel which was really hard to do. It took a really long time to mix it well enough to use. I was amazed by how hard they were here. They don’t have many machines and have to do things by hand  a lot which is really cool.
         Lunches are the biggest meal of the day. After such hard morning of work it is so rewarding to get such a large meal. Today our lunch  had chicken, rice, corn tortilla, salad, chips, watermelon and a peanut treat.  After lunch we spent a couple hours at the beach. The waves were  a lot bigger than they normally are because we don’t usually go during high tide.

         Our dinner wasn’t that exciting. It was spaghetti with meat sauce, rice and salad. Because I cant eat pasta I just ate a lot of rice which was rather boring.
