Day 50: The treasure hunt
Mike the hostel dude put on a treasure hunt so of course we're going to enter- there's competition and treasure involved! He gives us a map, some questions and instructions and a competing team. (unfortunately the idea wasn't that popular among the hostel occupants). So we set off at a fast pace to find the sites and answers to the questions. Liz had epic map reading skills, Hannah was the eyes (as she was the only one with sunnies on this glarey day) and I with the mathematic skills- for the place where the treasure was hidden had to be mathematically solved. So naturally we smashed it and won some chocolate treasure. The highlight of the hunt was the garden you ended up in - Genovese garden. It had a lovely waterfall and was also strangely filled with dinosaur sculptures... Actually the thing I loved about it was that there were little garden beds laid out in rows and each had their own mini fountains going- they were really sweet.
The rest of the afternoon was spent at... The beach! Yeah we did. It was 15 degrees but felt like 30 the sun was glorious. Han and I stripped down (Han had bathers...) and swam in the pacific ocean. The water was freezing but that didn't stop us from ducking under and swimming for a bit before sun- baking to warm up again. It was the perfect way to spend a gorgeous afternoon.
Wait for it... What a pub crawl? Why not go for the third pub crawl in 1 week?? Ok done. This time we had crazy LA frat boys on the crawl- they were very entertaining. We ended up at an Ibiza-style night club until early hours of the morning. (Ibiza is the party town of Spain and we are hoping to get there...)
