Hotel Castro is a Blasto

Hola! Yesterday we woke up early and went to our last meal on San Cristobal. After we ate our "feast" we headed for the Blue Fantasy, loaded with huge bags and sea sickness pills! After a 2 hour nap on the yacht, we went to lunch. After checking into Hotel Castro, everyone split into groups for free time. Free time is usually time to find the best candy shops and this time it was time to do laundry! Once free time was over, we headed to Escuela Nacional de los Galapagos, to meet our tour guides (who were the members of the high school English class).
We finished the tour back at the school and went to a performance of dance and music that portrayed the Galapoginian culture, during which we got pulled onto the dance floor to show them how we groove in USA, Canada, Bermuda, Korea, and Romania! Our day with the high school students ended with a game of football (soccer) between the Lifeworks group and the students. We met Guillermina and Mirna (owners of Hotel Castro) who also owned Sayapa (restaurant we eat dinner at). We went to dinner for a great salad, chicken, and potatoes! We went to bed right after dinner so we would be ready for a hard day of work on Saturday.
