We started our day with a short bus trip to a hole in the wall waterfall, accompanied by the eclectic soundtrack curated by Rory. Artists included Mitski, The Crane Wives, and Lemon Demon.
On the way to lunch, we went on an informative excursion with a local who told us several stories about the place we were in. One of the author’s (Cas) favorites was about the ghost of a woman who had to be moved from place to place along the cliffs because she was a nuisance.

We had lunch at a small little house on the coast that served fish soup and tea in eclectic tea cups.

Because the last time I rode a horse was was in 4th grade, I went into this activity not knowing how to ride one. Despite this, I was eventually able to learn the basic “controls” on the horse due to the other groupmates being very kind and helpful. For me, horse riding made for a wonderful last activity of the day. I think that for most of us, other than for the flies, the riding was relaxing because the horses carried us through the activity.
The food at the restaurant was wonderful. Every bite of it was delicious.
