C.A.p. Day 2!

Twas a cold, wet and dreary morrow. Not a critter was stirring, not even a bug. For breakfast we devoured rice, eggs sasauges, and plantains (gallo pinto). Post meal, the group gathered round to begin the treck back to San Rafael to finish our painting excursion. Once more we divided and conquered, tackling the sum total of two rooms by splitting the group up back into our parties. We worked rigorously to douse the rooms into their new mint green hue. After working tirelessly for minutes on end (2 hours), we had finished applying the undergarments (first layer) of paint. We staggered outside of the room to bask in the sunlight, when two nomads approached bearing consumables (kids with popsicles), carrying a multitude of flavors such as messy mango, corrupt coconut and beastly blackberry for about 2 dollars a pop. We ate and enjoyed and then went on to have sandwiches for lunch. To those whom desired, a match of soccer was available. The game left few still alive, with incredible screamers of goals by Nate, Jack, Levi and the game winner, Anna. For those who survived, finishing rooms while watching the world cup awaited them as a reward (brutal). Eventually, the finished product came to fruition, and was nothing less than a sight for sore eyes. Freetime was now available, and the choice between another soccer game or going back to the cabins were the options. However, the field was engulfed in clouds, quite literally. The clouds could be touched, and it did lead to a bit of a drizzle. Some stayed behind to ball out, while the others returned home. The same fate met everyone when they each arrived in the dining room and took a seat to consume a scrumptious dinner consisting of fish, lentils, and rice. We write this out with full tummies and a pleasent demenour about the room. Overall, an 8.7/10 day. Solid.
