Surf and Saddle

Our tiny hostel on the beach.

Hey guys we just got to a hotel on the beach that has no electricity. 
The shower was heated by a little metal bowl under the water. You have to light a fire under the bowl so the metal gets burning hot. Then the water runs through it, gets hot, then falls on you.

My Dad and I went on a long walk down the beach and found four dead seals and three dead penguins. Then we walked towards the lighthouse and saw a lot if sea lions on a huge rock. The sea lions ride giant waves up to the rocks where they lay in the sun.

We also walked to some giant sand dunes in a little desert. We climbed a giant hill and rode down on sand boards. They look just like snowboards.

After the beach we went to a horse ranch where we stayed for two days. We learned how to ride horses. My horse's name was Dulce de la Leche. She was the oldest and best trained horse on the farm. I really enjoyed the horses more than I expected.

Around the farm we saw giant hawks, lots of smaller birds and a really nice wild skunk.       

Today we are on a bus for 8 hours. We are going to Colonia Del Sacramento. We stay here two nights before taking a ferry to Beunos Aries in Argentina.
